Our Monthly Fire Focus
November 2025 - WAREHOUSE FIRES - In this month we focus on Warehouse fires. These fires have the potential of spreading very quickly, leading to major losses from stored property. A good example of the devastation of a warehouse fire (in this case a perfume warehouse) can be viewed here. In the video below we observe how proper arrangement of upright sprinklers can mitigate the situation by stopping the rapid spread of the fire. Talk to us to help you properly design your warehouse fire protection system through our performance based (computational modelling) approach.

Fire CFD For Rightly Sized Sprinkler Design
Whether you need to design the basement car park or hotel guest room sprinkler network, Fire CFD will reveal the performance of proposed designed upfront. This strategy will save on cost since these sprinkler networks usually rely on very priced pumping systems. Our CFD performance based design ensures the pumps are not oversized, thus greatly reducing procurement costs.
Fire CFD For Building WIth Atrium
High rise buildings with Atriums are extremely difficult to manage when it comes to fire protection, owing to the large spaces. Imagine having to install gigantic fans just to ensure smoke extraction (in the event of a fire) in the Atrium area. The right-sizing of these smoke extraction equipment is key to cost savings. Our Fire CFD approach will determine which design is both efficient and cost effective.
Fire CFD For Design of Systems For Effective Floor Evacuation
Human and fire or smoke interaction during a fire event can complicate the safe evacuation process. Though proper training of fire marshalls to help guide the evacuation process can significantly reduce injuries or death, some situations are so complex that a properly designed floor evacuation system is indispensable. Fire CFD is the go to solution.
We are known to serve various International players. These are some of the services our partners have enjoyed:
-
Dormans Coffee (International Coffee Brand) - as fire suppression systems contractors, we installed their Fire Hydrants System.
-
Hyatt Regency (International Hospitality Brand) - as fire suppression systems contractors and consultants, we designed and installed their fire sprinkler zone control valve units (non-return valve, butterfly valve flow and tamper switches). In addition we are the commissioning Engineers for their Fire Life Safety Systems including Integration of Fire Alarm Panel (See T&C Video).
-
IBERAFRICA (International Thermal Energy Suppliers) - as fire safety and alarm systems contractors, we installed their repaired rotameter and multistage Jockey pump. We also installed their new impeller for the centrifugal electric fire pump. We also conduct annual churn test for them.​
-
Trade Development Bank (TDB - International Banking Brand) - as Fire safety and protection consultants, we performed computational modeling of fire and smoke travel. With the results obtained, we designed and sized their Atrium Smoke extraction system for safe evacuation within tenable conditions.
