There are many points of fire propagation in modern kitchens, large quantities of flammable fuel are used, in addition to working with intense heat levels, thus creating possible dangerous situations with fire as the main protagonist. That is why it is necessary to have extinguishing systems in industrial kitchens.
Where most grease accumulates in an industrial kitchen is in the hood, and grease is a possible dangerous fire starting point. With the ProteK kitchen extinguishing system, the best automatic fire extinguishing system for kitchen hoods will be incorporated. These systems can be activated either electrically or manually.
The operation of the ProteK kitchen extinguishing system is simple and very effective because it has a double effect. It detects the creation of a fire when the temperature of the hood rises very quickly, at that moment, it starts the extinguishing protocol and, using the electrical activation, the first effect it has is to discharge the extinguishing agent in the form of foam, extinguishing the flames and then with that foam, its second effect is to create a surface layer that cools the area to prevent a possible reignition. This last process or effect is called saponification.
Aquafog for fires (Aquafog LPG) is equipped with misting heads designed to discharge divided water, i.e. Aquafog LPG tries to optimize water discharge by dividing its volume into tiny droplets. This technique maximizes cooling, reduces the volume of water used and reduces the damage that a large amount of water can cause to the environment, as some traditional systems already do.
Aquafog LPG protection systems, also called Aquafog water mist, stand out for the way they use water by dividing its volume into very small droplets, thus becoming a triple-effect extinguishing system. Aquafog by water mist has the first effect of suffocating the fire with the steam generated at the moment the water comes into contact with the fire. Then, as a second effect, it cools the space because by shooting the water in very small drops it forms a larger heat capturing surface and finally, as a third effect, it attenuates the fire by the mist generated, which absorbs much of the heat, thus protecting the environment. This Aquafog LPG water mist system reduces the risk of fire rekindling and offers fast and effective protection against class A, B, C and F fires.
Firetrace is an extinguishing system easy to install near the danger point, it is an automatic fire system with the main objective to stop the start of a fire in a matter of seconds and prevent the further spread of the fire.
This Firetrace fire protection system consists of a pressurised bottle of extinguishing agent connected to a polymer tube, which will burst on contact with flames releasing the extinguishing agent. This polymer tube is flexible and durable and has a high temperature accuracy which allows it to detect a situation of temperature variation of concern.
Fleximecan has designed its own detection and extinguishing system for industrial kitchens with an innovative valve that is configurable for both direct and indirect extinguishing and has two activation systems:
It has an automatic gas supply cut-off system for protected stoves, thus cutting off the heat supply to the burning sources at the moment of rapid extinguishing.
This extinguishing agent provides effective extinguishing for class A, B and F fires according to UNE-EN 1568-4:2000 and UNE-EN 1568-1:2000 standards.

There are various types of extinguishing systems, such as automatic sprinklers, clean agents, foam, and others. Choosing the most appropriate system will depend on the specific characteristics and needs of your business. It is recommended to conduct a risk assessment with fire safety specialists to determine the best option.
These are fire protection systems designed to suppress and extinguish fires through the use of specific chemicals. They are composed of a combination of chemical agents, fire detection equipment, and chemical-delivery devices.
The key advantage of chemical extinguishing systems is their ability to provide a rapid and effective response to a fire. They operate automatically, allowing for immediate action and reducing reaction time, thus minimizing fire damage.
The installation and maintenance of fire extinguishing systems must be performed by specialized and certified technical personnel. In most cases, the companies that manufacture or distribute these systems also offer installation and maintenance services to ensure their proper functioning.
Our team of experts provides comprehensive support and maintenance services to ensure the effectiveness and optimal operation of the systems over time.
As a specialized company, we can provide customized solutions to meet individual needs and ensure the company is prepared to face any emergency situation.
There are different types of kitchen fire extinguishing systems, each designed for a specific situation. Below, we describe the most common ones:
The choice of extinguishing system will depend on the type of kitchen, size, equipment, and fuel used. It is important to hire extinguishing system professionals like FLEXIMECAN to conduct a detailed assessment and determine the most appropriate system for your kitchen.
If the system is activated, the first thing you should do is turn off the heat source and evacuate everyone from the area. Then, call emergency services and wait for their arrival to assess the situation and verify that it is safe to re-enter the kitchen.
The right time to check fire extinguishers varies depending on several factors.
