The Modern Building Alliance recently joins the International Fire Safety Standards Coalition.

The Coalition was launched with the support of United Nations Economic Commission in July 2018; it brought together a growing list of professional and non-profit organisations from around the world dealing with fire safety of buildings with the purpose of discussing the development of landmark industry standards to address fire safety in buildings.

The Coalition  committed in developing and supporting a shared set of standards for fire safety aimed at delivering greater consistency of minimum levels of fire safety and professionalism in buildings across the world.

The 3rd International Fire Safety of Facade (FSF 2019) is held in Paris, from the 25th to the 27th September.
Organised by CSTB (Centre Scientifique et Technique du Bâtiment), the French Building Research Institute, FSF2019 is a three-days event that fosters dialogue among scientists, academics and professionals from around the world related to the research and development in the field of facade fire safety.
