ERB Asfalistiki and the Cyprus Fire Service held a public open day event in Paphos as part of Fire Safety Week 2026, aiming to raise awareness about fire prevention.
The event took place on Saturday, April 25, at the Paphos medieval castle, bringing together families and visitors of all ages.
“With the main message “Let’s not leave our dreams turn into ashes!“, the event marked the culmination on the joint initiatives of ERB Asfalistiki and the Cyprus Fire Service, which are implemented throughout the year,” the company said in a statement.
The primary objective, the statement added, was to inform and educate the public on fire prevention and effective protection measures.
Visitors were given the opportunity to see fire trucks and firefighting equipment up close, while members of the fire service provided guidance on prevention and extinguishing techniques.
Children were able to take part in activities designed specifically for them, including rides on two children’s fire trucks donated by ERB Asfalistiki.
The event, held under the auspices of Justice Minister Costas Fytiris, was supported by Live Link, while representatives distributed informational material and symbolic gifts to reinforce the importance of fire safety.
“ERB Asfalistiki extends its sincere thanks to the Municipality of Paphos for its cooperation and valuable contribution to the successful implementation of the event,” the company stated.
“ERB Asfalistiki and the Cyprus Fire Service, for 25 consecutive years, have been joining forces with the aim of protecting human life, property and the environment,” it added, noting that “they continuously enhance public awareness, fostering a culture of prevention against fire related risks”.
