Godrej Fire Resisting Filing Cabinets | Be Intelligent. Be Safe.

Protect vital documents from fire for up to 2 hours.



In minutes, a fire can wipe out your business and change your life. It takes very little time to start a fire, a carelessly thrown cigarette butt, and an electrical short circuit, things that happen through sheer carelessness, events that are thrown cigarette butt, and an electrical short circuit, things that happen through sheer carelessness, events that are

not even in anyone's control. Fire devours paper rapidly and greedily. It takes a lifetime's work to set up a business but a few minutes to destroy it. The record of transactions, policies, accounts receivable and payable, statements, licenses, agreements, formulae and blue prints are invaluable. You can get compensation through insurance, but once your vital documents turn to ashes, there is absolutely no recovery. So, make a wise decision before it is too late. Hence keeping these vital documents in ordinary filing cabinets, steel & wooden cupboards, will not protect them from the ever prevailing threat of fire.
