A1S Group Wins Iconic Crescent Development Flameshield Fire Shutter package in Baku, Azerbaijan.

There is always a commercial and pricing risk if a product exceeds the required specification on any given project. In this case the fact that our package included for CE marked fire shutters against the new harmonised European standard, EN BS 16034 turned out to be the salient winning factor and A1 are now in contract to manufacture 52 Flameshield FS 240 JM three phase fire shutters and 2 direct drive industrial doors for local installers Open Systems of Azerbaijan.

A1S Export manager, Mark Dougill correctly appraised that the end client, Gillan Holding LLC would want the comfort of CE Marking under the new stricter European testing regime, even though Azerbaijan are still in interim stages with mandatory CE marking.

The Crescent Development  has its centrepiece as a crescent moon edifice  with points on the surface of the Caspian Sea. Hosting a seven-star hotel and residential complex, this dazzling structure with its unique arcuate configuration mirroring the national flag of Azerbaijan is surely set to be Baku’s most iconic building and represents another global success for the A1S Group.
