Celebrating Our FIRAS Accreditation

25 October 2024

We are proud to announce that we have been awarded the prestigious FIRAS accreditation, marking a significant milestone in our ongoing commitment to fire protection. This achievement not only underscores our dedication to upholding the highest industry standards but also reassures our clients that they are receiving the best in fire protection services.

What is FIRAS Accreditation?

FIRAS (Fire Related Approved Scheme) is a third-party certification scheme for companies that install and maintain passive fire protection systems. It was introduced by Warrington Fire, one of the most trusted names in fire safety, and is a recognised mark of competence and quality. FIRAS accreditation demonstrates that a company has met the rigorous standards required to properly design, install, and maintain fire safety systems, including fire doors, fire-stopping, and fire-resisting walls and floors.

To achieve FIRAS accreditation, companies must undergo a thorough assessment process that involves audits of both their internal management systems and on-site work. Only organisations that consistently meet these high standards are awarded the certification.

Why FIRAS Accreditation Matters

Fire safety is not just a best practice, it’s a legal requirement. FIRAS accreditation ensures that all fire protection work we undertake complies with building regulations and fire safety laws. This gives our clients peace of mind, knowing that their projects meet all necessary legal standards and are fully compliant with the latest fire protection codes.

The FIRAS certification process requires all team members involved in fire protection installations to be trained and assessed for their competence. The accreditation also involves regular audits of live installations to ensure that the quality of the work remains consistently high.

Third-Party Endorsement

FIRAS is an impartial, third-party certification scheme, which means that our accreditation is a result of an objective assessment, not self-certification. This external validation highlights our commitment to fire protection installations and provides an extra layer of trust. Whether you’re working on a large-scale construction project or managing fire safety in a commercial building, you can be confident that our services will be delivered to the highest possible standard, minimising risk and ensuring long-term safety.

Our Commitment to Fire Safety

Achieving FIRAS accreditation is not the end of our journey but rather a step in our continuous commitment to fire safety. Our team has worked diligently to earn this recognition, and we will continue to invest in training, technology, and best practices to ensure that we maintain this standard of excellence in every project we undertake.

Whether it's installing fire doors, fire stopping, or passive fire-protection systems, our aim is to offer the most reliable, compliant, and effective fire safety solutions to our clients. The FIRAS accreditation is a testament to our hard work, but it’s also a guarantee to our clients that safety is at the forefront of everything we do.
