Ensuring your clients' safety is our highest priority. As environmental challenges grow, we are committed to supporting them through every step.

As the 2024 wildfire season continues, we’re reinforcing our dedication to safeguarding eligible commercial properties in Alberta at risk due to imminent wildfire threats. By partnering with Wildfire Defense Systems (WDS), we are growing our wildfire protection measures.

What this means for your clients in Alberta: 

If eligible clients' commercial properties in Alberta, insured by Gore Mutual, face imminent wildfire threats, WDS will automatically implement their proactive defense measures designed to protect these properties. These measures, provided at no extra cost, include:

  • Combustible material removal
  • Temporary sprinkler system deployment
  • Covering exterior vents
  • Closing exterior doors and windows to prevent embers from entering the building and igniting the interior 

Ensuring your clients' safety is our highest priority. As environmental challenges grow, we are committed to supporting them through every step.
