BETTER SAFE MAGAZINE Welcome to our new magazine for customers and industry professionals. . who are interested in maritime safety trends in general - and VIKING safety solutions in particular. Each magazine will have a main theme - and for this premiere edition, it’s Marine Fire Safety. Cargo fires have long been a major industry-wide concern and given the alarming rise in container vessel fires, averaging one incident per month in 2019, there is good cause to place this topic high on the safety agenda. VIKING is dedicated to help our customers tackle this serious issue and we’ve chosen to address the challenge in a proactive way. With the recent acquisition of the fire safety division of Drew Marine and our role as exclusive global distributor of the revolutionary HydroPen container firefighting system, we have taken quantum leaps to enhance our capacity and competencies as well as our product and service portfolio in this area. You can read much more about this in the magazine, where you can also catch up on the latest news from the world of maritime regulations and get expert advice on safety products and services. Last but by no means least, we will also address our response to the ongoing global crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, including our initiatives to protect people and business in these tough and uncertain times.
