Press Release Details

ANN ARBOR, Mich., Oct. 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- For the 10th consecutive year, Domino's Pizza (NYSE: DPZ), the recognized world leader in pizza delivery, and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) are teaming up to deliver fire safety messages to homes across the country.

During Fire Prevention Week (Oct. 8-14), participating Domino's stores throughout the U.S. will reinforce this year's campaign theme, "Every Second Counts: Plan Two Ways Out," with flyers on top of pizza boxes. The flyers will include fire safety facts and tips, such as educating customers about the importance of practicing home fire drills at least twice a year.

Customers who order from participating Domino's stores throughout the U.S. during Fire Prevention Week may also be surprised when their delivery arrives aboard a fire engine. If the smoke alarms in the home are working, the pizza is free. If the smoke alarms are not working, the firefighters will replace the batteries or install fully-functioning detectors.

"The Fire Prevention Week program is a great way to educate customers about fire safety," said Jenny Fouracre, Domino's spokeswoman. "Every year, Domino's stores across the country look forward to teaming up with their local fire departments and the NFPA to spread fire safety messages in a fun and exciting way."

According to research from the NFPA, today's home fires burn faster than ever. From the time the smoke alarm sounds, you may have less than two minutes to escape a home fire safely.

"The synthetic fibers used in modern home furnishings, along with the fact that newer homes tend to be built with more open spaces and unprotected lightweight construction, all contribute to an increased rate at which fire burns," said Lorraine Carli, vice president of outreach and advocacy at NFPA. "These factors make having a home escape plan and practicing it incredibly critical."

FireSafety Tips from Domino's and NFPA

• Draw a map of your home with all members of your household, marking two exits from each room and a path to the outside from each exit.
• Practice your home fire drill twice a year. Conduct one at night and one during the day with everyone in your home, and practice using different ways out.
• Teach children how to escape on their own in case you can't help them.
• Make sure the number of your home is clearly marked and easy for the fire department to find.
• Close doors behind you as you leave – this may slow the spread of smoke, heat, and fire.
• Once you get outside, stay outside. Never go back inside a burning building.
