Abu Dhabi Civil Defence Authority and e& Partnered to Activate Early Fire Detection Systems in Homes
The Abu Dhabi Civil Defence Authority and e& have partnered to activate early fire detection systems in homes by installing, operating and managing the “Hassantuk for Homes” electronic system, thereby enhancing preventive safety standards within homes across the UAE capital.
The partnership covers the provision of smart infrastructure capable of detecting fires in their earliest stages and reinforces home safety by installing an AI-enhanced Hassantuk smart system, with direct connectivity to control rooms.
The collaboration highlights the use of artificial intelligence to identify potential hazards in their earliest stages, significantly reducing risks to life and property. It also supports the broader goal of achieving the highest civil safety standards through innovative sensing technologies.
The UAE Cabinet had mandated the installation of Hassantuk systems in all existing and under-construction residential villas from January 1, 2024. As of 2024, Hassantuk for homes covered over 50,000 villas in the UAE and successfully detected over 400 fires.
The Hassantuk programme aims to support the achievement of the UAE National Agenda 2021 in becoming one of the safest countries in the world as well as sustaining the reduction of the rate of fires and fire related deaths compared to numerous countries worldwide.
It is largest and first project of its kind, targeting over 500,000 buildings and private housing at a Federal level.
