FX Prevent: specialist in fire prevention for companies
FX Prevent – together with sister company Presscon – has more than 20 years of experience in controlling oxygen and nitrogen concentrations using nitrogen generators. This technique can be applied in many ways: from fire prevention to improving the shelf life of vegetables, for example.
Short summary about FX Prevent
Presscon was founded in 1997 and focuses on the design, construction and maintenance of nitrogen expansion systems for large-scale greenhouse heating systems. In 2005, FX Prevent started with the aim of applying the know-how about nitrogen generators for fire prevention systems. In 2008, Presscon and FX Prevent jointly developed High Performance – Pressure Swing Adsorption (HP-PSA). This technology makes it possible to produce very environmentally friendly nitrogen with an optimized air flow and a unique pressure system for the active carbon.

1997 - Founding Presscon
Presscon was founded in 1997 and focuses on the design, construction and maintenance of nitrogen expansion systems for large-scale greenhouse heating systems. In 2005, FX Prevent started with the aim of applying the know-how about nitrogen generators for fire prevention systems.
Our certificates
Our oxygen reduction system is designed to prevent the occurrence or spread of fire by displacing oxygen with nitrogen. In designing and installing it, we must meet several criteria. These criteria include continuity, oxygen level measurements, alarm signals when oxygen levels are increased or decreased, and following proper protocols when oxygen levels are increased or decreased.
Our LOX system meets all relevant safety standards and guidelines.
