At Firemint Ltd, we specialize in creating comprehensive fire evacuation plans to ensure the safety of your building’s occupants. In New Zealand, having a fire evacuation scheme is a legal requirement for certain buildings, as it helps facilitate safe and efficient evacuation during a fire emergency. These plans must include evacuation procedures, assembly points, and regular drills, and they must be approved by Fire and Emergency New Zealand (FENZ), particularly for high-risk or high-occupancy buildings.
