Fire suppression

Home Fire suppression

We test fire suppression systems for buildings, ships and offshore installations. You get documentation you can use, and a test setup that holds up.

We carry out standardised testing of water mist, foam, gas and sprinkler systems. We also run development trials when you need more than a standard test. 

The tests are carried out in our test hall, where we control both wind and temperature. That allows us to run a wide range of tests under controlled conditions. 

If you have a solution that needs classification, further development or use in a new application, we help you design a test programme that gives you answers you can actually use.
