Gartenbau-Versicherung highlights electrical fire risks and offers practical guidance for preventive protection.
Gartenbau-Versicherung has published a new brochure in its “Contributions to Operational Safety” series entitled “Safe under Power.” The publication provides horticultural businesses with practical guidance on how to identify electrical risks at an early stage, reduce fire hazards and protect their operations effectively. The message is clear: modern horticulture depends heavily on electricity, making the safe handling of installations, equipment and infrastructure all the more important.
The brochure examines the most common causes of electrical fires – ranging from defective systems, damaged cables and overloaded circuits to moisture, batteries and human error. It also outlines the potential consequences of fires for buildings, technical equipment, plant stocks and day-to-day business operations. Particular emphasis is placed on practical preventive measures, including regular inspections, professional installation, moisture protection, surge protection and organizational measures such as employee training, emergency planning and proper documentation.
“Electrical systems are indispensable in horticulture, but they also pose considerable risks if they are not inspected regularly and operated professionally. With this new brochure, we want to raise awareness among horticultural businesses and provide practical support for improving fire protection in everyday operations,” says Klaus Bingel, Risk Advisor at Gartenbau-Versicherung.
A special feature of the new publication is its practical Fire Protection Checklist, which helps businesses review the most important preventive measures easily and on a regular basis.
The brochure is now available free of charge on the Gartenbau-Versicherung website and can also be ordered as a printed copy
