Services
Fire Sprinkler Systems
Our fire sprinkler systems provide automatic fire suppression through strategically placed heads that activate at specific temperature thresholds. Designed for industrial and commercial environments, these systems offer early fire intervention while minimising water damage. Each installation includes custom hydraulic calculations and compliance with BS EN 12845 standards.
Fire Risk Assessments
Comprehensive fire risk assessments identify potential hazards and evaluate existing safety measures. Our qualified assessors follow PAS 79 guidelines to produce detailed reports with prioritised action plans. This service helps businesses maintain Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order compliance and implement effective mitigation strategies.
Fire Alarm Systems
We design and install addressable fire alarm systems with multi-sensor detection capabilities. Our solutions include conventional and intelligent systems with remote monitoring integration. All installations meet BS 5839-1 standards and feature regular maintenance schedules to ensure continuous operational readiness.
Gas Suppression Systems
Specialist gas suppression systems protect high-value equipment and sensitive environments. We implement clean agent solutions like FM-200 and Novec 1230 that extinguish fires without residue. These systems are ideal for data centres, server rooms, and industrial control areas where water-based systems would cause secondary damage.
Fire Marshal Training
Our accredited fire marshal training courses cover emergency procedures, fire behaviour, and evacuation techniques. Delivered by experienced instructors, the programme includes practical drills and scenario-based learning. Participants receive certification valid for three years, with refresher courses available to maintain competency.
