The Ukrainian Fire and Technological Safety Union, as a nationwide professional public organization that brings together experts, manufacturers, designers, and specialists in the field of fire and industrial safety, officially declares its support for Kovlar Group LLC in connection with the dissemination of information that shows signs of manipulation and damages the business reputation of the company and the industry as a whole.
Kovlar Group LLC is a member of the Union and actively participates in the organization’s professional activities aimed at improving fire safety in Ukraine. The company’s director, Konstantin Kalafat, heads the specialized committee on fire protection, which testifies to his expertise and professional authority among industry representatives.
We are confident in his clear pro-Ukrainian position, dedication to the state, and profession. Over many years of activity, particularly in the context of full-scale war, he has consistently demonstrated civic responsibility, support for the Ukrainian industry, and active participation in professional and public initiatives. In the professional community, Kostyantyn Kalafat is known as a principled specialist, patriot, and person dedicated to the development of the Ukrainian fire safety sector.
The company’s activities in the field of development and application of fire protection materials are carried out within the framework of current legislation, in compliance with the requirements of regulatory and legal acts and industry standards. The company cooperates systematically with the professional community and is open to expert dialogue.
We emphasize that the dissemination of unverified, distorted, or manipulative information harms not only individual businesses but also overall confidence in the fire safety market and Ukrainian manufacturers.
The Ukrainian Union of Fire and Technogenic Safety calls on media representatives and the public to adhere to the principles of objectivity and fact-checking. If necessary, the Union is ready to provide professional explanations and reserves the right to appeal to the competent authorities to protect the legitimate interests of our organization’s members.
The All-Ukrainian Public Organization “Ukrainian Union of Fire and Technogenic Safety” (USFTS) was established in 2004. Until July 30, 2010, the organization was called the “Ukrainian Union of Manufacturers of Fire Protection Products and Services.” The USFBS was registered by the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine on October 19, 2004, under No. 2163.
The USFBS consists mainly of collective members, i.e., labor collectives of enterprises, institutions, and organizations, and individual members, i.e., individuals working in the field of fire and man-made safety.
The main goal of the organization is to carry out activities aimed at improving the environmental situation by promoting the development and implementation of means and methods of fire protection and man-made safety, protecting the domestic market for fire and man-made safety products, and the common interests of its members.
