Greiz develops the EvaBox for fire protection of cultural assets. This innovative solution protects important archives in an emergency.
Innovative EvaBox: Protection for cultural assets in emergencies in Greiz!
An innovative project is currently being worked on in Greiz that could be of great importance for archives and cultural assets. Ulf Häder from the Sommerpalais emphasizes the need for a special evacuation box, which should enable valuable contents to be rescued quickly in an emergency. This construction, known as EvaBox, was developed to protect books, writings and documents from both moisture and dirt. Firefighters emphasize that during operations they often only have around 20 minutes to evacuate valuable objects from endangered areas. The EvaBox can therefore be of crucial help when it comes to acting quickly in an emergency, reports MDR.
The special feature of the EvaBox is its rolling mechanism, which allows it to be closed at lightning speed. The box also has a glass fabric coating with an aluminum coating, which has proven its high protective effect during extensive fire and water tests. Regarding the current status, Alice Schwabe from TITV explains that the box is still in the testing and optimization phase. However, innovative archivists can look forward to the possibility of adapting the box individually to their needs in terms of shape and size in the future.
The challenges of fire safety
The development of security solutions for archives is particularly relevant given the ongoing challenges in fire protection. It turns out that a well-thought-out evacuation solution not only serves to minimize material losses, but also to preserve cultural heritage. The urgent need for efficient solutions is underlined by the experiences of emergency services, who are often limited in their actions during fires.
Such innovations are not only important for archives, but could also affect other areas such as healthcare, where cleanliness and hygiene are cornerstones of every facility. It is important here that the technologies developed to protect cultural assets can also be expanded to other sectors.
Use of modern cleaning techniques
When it comes to cleanliness and hygiene, technologies from the area of cleaning blinds, such as ultrasonic blind cleaning, can be impressive. Not only the slats, but also the cords and rods are thoroughly cleaned by certified cleaners. The entire process ensures that not only dust, but also nicotine, soot and similar substances are removed. These cleanings guarantee that blinds not only appear as good as new, but also retain their functionality, reports Blind Cleaners.
In conclusion, combinations of innovative approaches to evacuation technology and modern cleaning solutions can help create a safe and clean environment for cultural assets. The developments surrounding the EvaBox are a timely step towards both preserving cultural heritage and better meeting the challenges of fire safety.
