Lighting for Fire Escapes
and Evacuation Routes

Emergency lighting is designed to help occupants see their way to safety in the event of a mains power failure. If the emergency lighting fails to function properly, lives could be put at risk and organisations held responsible. Maintaining a building’s emergency lighting system is a legal requirement under The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) 2005. The right emergency lighting system enables the safe, prompt and efficient evacuation of spaces and buildings. It also provides your staff with peace of mind in the event of any sudden loss of power. Monthly emergency lighting test are essential for workplace safety and ensures emergency lighting is functioning when you need them. As part of your fire safety maintenance, Chubb can conduct your monthly emergency lighting tests and ensure your systems are serviced to the correct standards. Chubb provides a range of solutions for internal and external areas, all of which should be tested monthly to check everything is functioning correctly and compliant with relevant British Standards. Our emergency lighting products include:
