What is NFPA – National Fire Protection Association
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) is the international umbrella organization for fire safety science, fire protection engineering and technical standards for fire prevention. Founded in 1896, NFPA develops and updates more than 300 standards and codes used worldwide for the design, installation, operation and maintenance of fire protection systems and safety infrastructure.
Popular standards, such as NFPA 13 (sprinkler systems), NFPA 20 (fire pumping units), NFPA 14 (fire hydrants) and NFPA 25 (inspection, testing and maintenance), are a key technical reference for engineers, designers, maintenance personnel, risk engineers and safety managers.
NFPA trains and certifies thousands of professionals globally, ensuring up-to-date skills aligned with international best practices in fire protection, industrial safety and risk management.
