    APPLUS+ LABORATORIES: SETTING THE EUROPEAN STANDARD IN TUNNEL FIRE SAFETY TESTS

     
    Our laboratory in Asturias, Spain, has a 600-metre-long testing tunnel that is comprehensively equipped to carry out full-scale fire tests. This is the only facility of its kind in Europe, being able to test the effectiveness of both active and passive protection systems in real, large-scale fire scenarios.
     
    We also run fire safety training courses for professionals whose work may involve safety or the management of an emergency in a tunnel or other confined space – from firefighters and mining brigades to infrastructure operators and transport professionals. Applus+ training courses contain both theoretical and practical modules, including hands-on experience in a tunnel with real fire.
