Cemex Croatia mark the World Day for Safety and Health at Work with PVSTOP

On the occasion of marking the World Day for Safety and Health at Work, Cemex Croatia organized a series of activities aimed at strengthening the safety of employees and the local community.

The central event was a firefighting exercise simulating a solar system fire at the Administrative Building of the Sv. Juraj factory, during which the evacuation of employees was successfully carried out. Cemex employees, Securitas security guards and members of the Mladost Fire Brigade from Kaštel Sućurac participated in the exercise, and it included testing the readiness and cooperation of all participants in conditions of real danger. After the exercise, a training for firefighters of the Mladost Fire Department was organized with a focus on the specifics of extinguishing fires with solar panels, which is an increasingly significant challenge in modern industrial plants.

In order to further help improve security capacities, Cemex purchased PVSTOP fire extinguishers for its own needs and for the needs of DVD Mladost, the only known solution for quick and efficient ‘shutdown’ of solar panels in the event of fire, flood or other emergency incidents. PVSTOP acts as a liquid coating that blocks the flow of light and stops electricity generation, allowing firefighters safer access and more effective intervention.

“The safety of our employees, partners and community is always our priority. By marking the World Day for Safety and Health at Work, we want to further emphasize the importance of education, preparedness and mutual cooperation in crisis situations,” said Fabjan Ruščić, Head of Occupational Safety and Health at Cemex Croatia.
