Spur Safety at HSE 2025 – Innovation, Insight, and the Importance of Fire Doors

Spur Safety explores the latest health and safety innovations at HSE 2025 at NEC Birmingham, with a special focus on the importance of correctly installed and maintained fire doors. Discover how real-world fire door demonstrations highlighted life-saving differences, and why regular fire door inspections are essential for compliance and safety.

We recently had the opportunity to attend HSE 2025 at the NEC Birmingham, and it was an incredibly insightful event that brought together innovators, experts, and industry leaders from across the health and safety landscape.

From the moment we stepped through the doors, it was clear that the future of health and safety is being driven by technology, data, and a real passion for saving lives and reducing risks. We saw cutting-edge PPE, drone inspection technology, digital risk assessment tools, and more – all aimed at making our working environments safer and more efficient.

But what really stood out for us were the interactive fire door displays. These weren't just technical demonstrations – they were visual and practical showcases of how critical fire doors are in protecting lives and property during a fire.

The displays included side-by-side video comparisons showing the devastating difference between a properly sealed and fitted fire door versus one that had been poorly installed or neglected. The takeaway was simple but powerful: when fire doors fail, lives are at risk.

As a company deeply involved in fire risk assessments and compliance, it was a strong reminder of just how important our role is in supporting clients with fire safety – especially when it comes to fire doors. These aren’t just another tick-box item; they’re life-saving barriers that must be installed and maintained to the highest standards.

At Spur Safety, we carry out detailed fire door inspections, ensuring that everything from seals and gaps to hinges and signage are fully compliant. We’ve seen first-hand how easy it is for small issues to become major hazards.

Key Takeaways from HSE 2025:

  • Innovation is everywhere – from drones to data-driven solutions, the industry is evolving fast.

  • Fire door safety is still a huge area of risk – and one of the most preventable.

  • Education and awareness are growing, and we’re proud to be part of that movement.

If you're unsure whether your fire doors are compliant or simply want peace of mind, we’re here to help. Contact us to arrange a professional inspection or to discuss your fire safety needs.

Together, we can make sure your buildings are safer – one door at a time.
