The project involved designing and installing 208 sprinklers for a 1,500-square-foot section of the facility, which features 35-foot-high ceilings and an advanced, two-level product storage configuration using an automated automatic storage and retrieval system (ASRS).
The ASRS technology, which employs automated guided robots to efficiently retrieve products from densely packed storage areas, has been widely adopted to meet the growing demand for rapid product delivery to end-use consumers. While ASRS enhances operational efficiency, it also presents significant fire protection challenges due to the use of plastic, open-top containers.
Moreover, the reduction or elimination of aisles in ASRS configurations can hinder fire department access, making effective fire suppression and containment a top priority.
To address these challenges, Capitol Fire Sprinkler designed a fire sprinkler system combining both in-rack and ceiling sprinklers tailored, specifically, to the unique storage layout. The project required meticulous planning and execution within a narrow work area, while Fresh Direct continued 24/7 operations without disruption.
“Our mission is to deliver high-quality fire protection solutions that align with our clients’ needs and budgets,” said Adam Levine, President of Capitol Fire Sprinkler. “We are proud to have partnered with Fresh Direct on this unique project!”
Emphasizing the importance of planning and safety throughout the project Mike Ward, Capitol Fire Sprinkler’s Engineering Manager, pointed out, “It was essential for us to develop a detailed strategy that allowed out team to install a fire sprinkler system at a 35-foot height within confined spaces without interrupting operations or damaging sensitive equipment. We took extra precautions to anticipate potential challenges and address them proactively.”
The completion of the project reaffirms Capitol Fire Sprinkler’s commitment to delivering customized, state-of-the-art fire protection solutions for its clients across the greater New York City metro area.
