Fire Equipment Manufacturers’ Association (FEMA) is an international, non-profit trade association that comprises manufacturers of commercial fire protection equipment, including portable fire extinguishers, fire hoses, valves, and pre-engineered fire suppression systems. The association promotes a "layered fire protection plan," emphasizing that safety is achieved through multiple safeguards rather than relying on a single solution. FEMA engages in advocacy, education, and the development of industry standards to enhance fire safety and protect property. Its members collaborate to influence fire safety codes and regulations, working closely with organizations like the National Fire Protection Association and the International Code Council.
