Drum store proves fireproof September 1st 2006 Herb UK are leading manufacturers and distributors of prominent brands of beauty and cosmetic products throughout the UK and Europe, and are also renowned because none of the products it produces have been tested on animals. In May a substantial fire requiring 25 fire appliances and over 100 fire fighter broke out and engulfed the building. When managing director Raul Perfitt was finally allowed into the remains of his business the sight that greeted him was one of almost complete devastation, but on entering what had been the manufacturing area he was amazed to see that the Empteezy Drum Storage unit he had purchased only recently was, apart from superficial blackening completely intact and the contents were completely untouched too.
Commenting Mr Perfitt said, "With all that devastation I was utterly surprised to see our drum store sitting there, we did not buy it with the prospect of fire in mind, it was Empteezy's claim that their units have exceptional strength, are fully seam welded and come with 20 years structural guarantee that helped make up our minds. After what I have witnessed I can fully recommend the purchase of a Empteezy Drum Store to anyone."
The cause of the fire was put down to rubbish self combusting and it was estimated that temperatures at the seat of the fire reached in excess of 600C.
The story ends on a positive note with Herb UK rising like the proverbial phoenix from the ashes to trade again. More articles from Empteezy Ltd: |
