Fire Prevention Measures for Warehouses: The Importance of Lessons Learned and Training in Large-Scale Warehouses

Reconfirm the realities and dangers of warehouse fires, the actual violations of regulations in large warehouses, and the lessons learned from the contents of the report!

Time flies, and we are already halfway through this year, with the season transitioning into the rainy season and then summer. Although discussing fire incidents during this time may seem out of sync with the season, it is essential to implement year-round fire prevention measures for warehouse facilities, which are crucial for logistics. When it comes to warehouse fires, those that cause significant damage or occur in large-scale warehouses tend to receive extensive media coverage. However, it seems that other types of fires are not reported as frequently. One notable large-scale warehouse fire occurred in February 2017 in Miyoshi Town, Iruma District, Saitama Prefecture, where approximately 45,000 square meters of a warehouse with a total floor area of about 70,000 square meters burned, taking about 12 days to extinguish. *For more details on the blog, please refer to the related links.
