Ministry of the Interior and Safety Selects 8 Entries for 'Korea Safety Technology Awards'... Presidential Award Goes to 'Integrated Foldable Safety Railing'

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The Ministry of the Interior and Safety announced on the 29th that it has selected eight outstanding safety technologies and products as winners of the '2021 Korea Safety Technology Awards.'

The Presidential Award was given to Fine D&C's integrated foldable safety railing and evacuation device used as outdoor emergency stairs. Under normal circumstances, it functions as a balcony railing for apartment complexes, and in emergencies such as fires, the railing unfolds into an emergency staircase, helping many people evacuate quickly.

The Prime Minister's Award was given to Esca's ‘Composite Filtering Method Low-Visibility Image Enhancement CCTV System.’ This product automatically detects low-visibility conditions caused by fog, sea mist, smoke, etc., and improves the image by applying a composite filter. It is expected to greatly assist in accident prevention and recovery after incidents.

In addition, excellent safety technologies and products used in daily life, such as in industrial sites and traffic safety, were selected for the Minister of the Interior and Safety Award.

Yoon Jong-jin, Director of the Safety Policy Office, said, “The development of safety technology plays a significant role in minimizing risks in people's daily lives and creating a safe society. We will continue to strive to discover outstanding safety technologies and products and promote their widespread use to advance the disaster safety industry.”
