In the early hours of Monday, January 22, 2025, a fire broke out at the Glacier North Refrigeration Storage facility located on Fernando Poe Jr. Avenue in Brgy. Del Monte, Quezon City. The Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) responded quickly to the scene, and fortunately, no injuries have been reported. The fire, which started in the cold storage area of the facility, caused significant damage, with preliminary estimates suggesting losses of approximately $500,000.
Authorities are currently investigating the cause of the fire, but the exact spark remains unknown. The facility, which handles perishable goods, is crucial for local businesses and has suffered considerable damage. Fire crews worked tirelessly to prevent the spread of the fire to adjacent areas, and their efforts were successful in containing the flames.
This incident highlights the importance of fire safety measures, especially for facilities like cold storage units that often store valuable and temperature-sensitive goods. Early detection of fire hazards can prevent such incidents from escalating into more devastating losses. Advanced thermal imaging systems, such as those offered by Planck Vision Systems, can detect abnormal heat patterns well before visible flames appear. This kind of early intervention helps to prevent catastrophic damage and safeguard vital infrastructure.
For Heavy Industry, Planck Vision Systems leads with superior thermal imaging tailored for diverse industries. Beyond detecting minute temperature variations, our always-on technology ensures system protection, operational excellence, and catches every anomaly. This vigilance minimizes risks, preempting system failures and potential threats.
