FirePro UK provides LPCB certified condensed aerosol fire suppression for critical-risk facilities across Crewe, Cheshire, and the wider North West and Midlands.
No cylinders, no pipework, no pressurised agents. Where a standard alarm detects, FirePro automatically suppresses at source, protecting the precision equipment and infrastructure that cannot afford to fail.
Crewe is a major railway and industrial town in Cheshire East, sitting at a nationally significant junction on the West Coast Main Line with easy access to the M6 at Junctions 16 and 17. It has one of the UK's most distinctive industrial identities, built around automotive manufacturing, rail engineering, and logistics.
Bentley Motors on Pyms Lane is Crewe's defining employer and one of the UK's most prestigious advanced manufacturing operations. The global headquarters for design, engineering, and hand-manufacturing of Bentley vehicles, it employs over 4,000 people across production facilities, engine test beds, design studios, an integrated logistics centre, and the newly opened Bentley Campus.
The electrical infrastructure, diesel generators, HV/LV distribution, UPS systems, and precision manufacturing equipment across the Bentley campus represent a significant and specific fire suppression application environment. It is the UK's only carbon-neutral luxury car factory - the kind of high-value, precision-critical facility where secondary damage from a suppression agent is as serious a concern as the fire itself.
Siemens Mobility operates within Crewe's advanced manufacturing base alongside other rail and transportation engineering companies. Cheshire East's manufacturing sector employs more than 11% of the workforce, well above the national average, reflecting the depth of industrial activity across the town.
Leighton Hospital on Middlewich Road serves Crewe, Nantwich, and surrounding areas and is managed by Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. A new £1.4 billion hospital on the Leighton site is the largest single development planned for Crewe, bringing significant expansion of NHS backup power, medical electrical systems, and critical care infrastructure.
The Weston Road logistics corridor, with major warehouse units at the Cabot and Quorum Estates between M6 Junctions 16 and 17, adds large-scale diesel backup and electrical distribution infrastructure to the area's fire risk profile. Basford Hall freight yard on the West Coast Main Line and ongoing rail engineering investment from Network Rail add a further industrial dimension.
A standard fire alarm detects and alerts. It does not suppress the fire at source. For Crewe's automotive, rail, and industrial environments, that gap carries real consequences. FirePro UK provides the automatic, LPCB certified suppression these facilities require.
Today’s modern landscape holds a myriad of fire risk challenges that demand fresh thinking, innovative solutions for a safer, greener future.
From sub stations, transformers, HV/LV, electrical distribution, and risers. FirePro swiftly suppresses fire, minimising critical equipment damage
In the era of remote sites, FirePro's versatile and easy-to-install systems offer effective fire protection without compromising efficiency.
The significant rise in imported bulk li-ion energy storage facilities from overseas may also mean a significant increase in fire risk, especially when poorly engineered. Why compromise, FirePro has the answer.
Whether on land, marine or offshore, FirePro ensures fail safe, resilient fire protection for many types of power generation, plant, machinery, even ATEX environments.
For specifiers, engineers, and facilities managers across Crewe's automotive, rail, healthcare, and logistics base, these are the most relevant applications.
Diesel generators
Automotive and manufacturing facilities, hospitals, and logistics operations depend on diesel generator backup to maintain critical operations. FirePro activates automatically on detection, protecting the generator enclosure without water, pipework, or manual intervention.
HV/LV electrical distribution rooms
Arc flash and insulation failure are common causes of electrical fires across precision manufacturing and NHS facilities. FirePro floods the protected space within seconds, suppressing the fire before it reaches adjacent infrastructure.
UPS and battery energy storage
Precision manufacturing and healthcare operations rely on UPS and battery systems that carry fire risks water-based suppression cannot safely address. FirePro's condensed aerosol suppression activates automatically without damaging surrounding equipment.
Engine test beds and machinery enclosures
Engine test facilities and precision manufacturing environments carry significant fire risk from electrical systems, fuel, and hydraulic equipment. FirePro generators can be installed within or adjacent to these enclosures, providing automatic suppression at the point of risk.
Electrical switchgear and risers
Compact FirePro generators can be installed within or adjacent to switchgear panels and cable riser enclosures. Suppression is automatic and contained precisely to the protected zone.
Automotive manufacturing operations including those with precision electrical infrastructure, HV/LV distribution, diesel generators, UPS systems, and engine test beds carry critical fire risk that a standard alarm cannot address. FirePro activates automatically without water, residue, or pipework, making it well suited to precision manufacturing environments where secondary damage from a suppression agent would be unacceptable.
Yes. FirePro UK is the UK and Ireland master distributor for FirePro condensed aerosol fire suppression, supporting specifiers, designers, installers, and end users across Crewe, Cheshire, and the wider North West and Midlands.
A solid suppression compound is stored within a compact, wall-mounted generator. On activation, it converts to a fine aerosol of potassium-based particles that interrupt the combustion chain within the protected space. No cylinders, pipework, or pressurised agents are required.
Passive fire protection contains fire spread using structural measures such as compartmentation and fire doors. Active systems suppress fire dynamically on detection. FirePro is an active suppression system that works alongside passive measures to protect high-risk assets that structural measures alone cannot address.
Fire alarms alert people to danger they do not put out the fire. FirePro activates the moment a fire is detected, flooding the protected enclosure with condensed aerosol agent and extinguishing the risk at source before it can spread to adjacent systems or cause irreversible damage.
