Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and Eurostar are among recent customers of FirePro, a specialist in modular fire suppression products and control systems.
The company said: “We have case studies demonstrating how these two organisations chose FirePro equipment over traditional gas suppression, and saved money without detriment to fire cover, while improving sustainability and operational efficiency.” The company added: “FirePro is an environmentally safe, highly effective, fire suppression system that extinguishes fire through chemical reaction, and not depleting oxygen. Ownership cost is lower than with gas suppression systems, since there are no pipes or pressurised cylinders, meaning faster installation, and less maintenance. FirePro may be used where CO2 or FM200 systems are either discharged, or overdue for mandatory 10 year hydrostatic testing, or where water mist may not be the right answer.”
