Fire Protection For Industry

Fire hazards commonly affecting industrial buildings

Industrial buildings often have more fire hazards than business or domestic premises. This is often because they are used for the storage of flammable materials or, in some industries, chemical storage.

Process industries, in particular, require high levels of fire protection. Many manufacturing processes produce heat, often in the presence of flammable materials.

Whatever the nature of the assets or the number of employees that need protecting, the Armstrong Priestley team can provide fire safety systems that meet the highest industry standards.

Sprinkler systems for industrial buildings

Many of our projects involve fitting fire protection into large warehousing projects for industrial or logistics customers. We have extensive experience working with customers during the construction of new-build projects and fitting sprinkler systems into industrial buildings that are being refurbished.

We have been involved in designing and installing various industrial sprinkler systems. Our client project portfolio includes simple mezzanine extensions and large, fully automated warehouse solutions.

Many of our larger projects have required the installation of a pump and tanked water supply to provide sufficient water to operate the water sprinklers effectively.

Armstrong Priestley maintenance packages

Regular inspections ensure your sprinkler system is always ready to protect industrial buildings and their occupants.

We offer a range of maintenance and servicing packages to fit in with your requirements.

Passive fire protection systems for industrial premises

Passive fire protection measures are advised for all industrial buildings, even those equipped with fire suppression systems. Consideration of fire risk should be part of every new build and may include layout and the type of building materials used.

Passive fire protection may include fire doors, compartmentalised work areas, or storage areas in warehouses. It also includes the use of fire-resistant materials in the construction and fitting process.

Fire safety training for all staff is also essential.
