Dorin Beu, RoGBC President, will be a speaker at this event.

Fire safety of buildings has become an increasingly important issue at European level, especially after the Grenfell Tower fire in London. The European Commission has set up an Information Exchange Platform for Fire and for the first time, a European directive, includes requirements regarding the fire safety of buildings. The Directive promotes the energy efficiency of buildings and will encourage them. Increases energy efficiency but may also increase the risk of fire. Are we ready to face it?

In 1950, a room was engulfed in flames in 25 minutes. Now it only takes 3 minutes.
In Romania, about 200 people die from the fire and another 600 are hospitalized every year.
We know that the nature of buildings is changing: the construction industry is developing new innovative solutions that existing regulations and testing regimes have not outgrown. We drastically change the way we build and yet the regulations are not updated regularly to reflect these changes.

Attend the 2nd edition of the PRIA Fire Safety in Buildings conference to discuss together how we can apply all these changes and how best to implement them in our legislation!
Green buildings and automation are another extremely important topic on the European agenda.

This event will be attended by representatives of MDRAP, MAI, ISU, fire experts, firefighters, European associations but also from Romania, international companies from different sectors such as: real estate developers, supermarket chains, hotels, logistics warehouses, manufacturers of materials, chambers of commerce and embassies, NGOs and homeowner associations, representatives of Parliament and the Senate, architects, investors, insurers, banks, lawyers and media representatives. Speakers include:

Raed ARAFAT - Head of the Emergency Department
Dorin BEU - Lecturer, Technical University of Cluj-Napoca / President of Romania
Green Building Council
Mihai TOADER-PASTI - Co-Founder and General Manager EFdeN
