Henri Degre Contributes to Fire Safety Education

Few scenarios seem scarier than being in a burning building. The stress of the situation can naturally cause people to panic, prohibiting them from doing what they need to do to escape the fire safely. Everyone needs to go through fire safety education; it has been shown that the utilization of fire safety education, in conjunction with interactive resources, such as the SCOTTY Fire Safety House, have contributed to the survival of countless fire victims. Henri Degre, a partial owner and the General Manager of Mobile Concepts by SCOTTY, has contributed to the manufacture of multiple version of the SCOTTY Fire Safety House.

How Do Children Learn?

More often than not, fire safety is taught to children who are in elementary school. Certainly, telling kids how to crawl through the house and escape the possibly fatal smoke may help, but being in such a stressful situation may cause all of that knowledge to seem out of touch with reality and ineffective. To really secure a strong foundation of fire safety education, instructors must simulate the events that they wish students to learn about—and the SCOTTY Fire Safety House is the most popular and effective way to do so.

How Has Henri Degre Contributed to Fire Safety Education?

Henri Degre and his team have innovated the Fire Safety House once again with the release of their new i-SCOTTY Fire Safety House Trailer. Henri Degre and the rest of the manufacturers have incorporated more interactive features,  including a video presentation, staged kitchen, new room configurations, smoke machine, and wall-mounted touch pads that are controlled by a computer.

Teaching Children

By allowing kids to experience how smoky a house will be during a fire, Henri Degre and the rest of the Mobile Concepts by SCOTTY team can adequately prepare them for the challenges they will face should they ever become involved in a house fire. Many children have reported that the lessons they learned from the SCOTTY Fire Safety House have contributed to their survival during a fire, which is why Henri Degre and his team continue to innovate this invaluable tool in an effort to provide the best fire safety education possible.
