Hastings is a town steeped in history and framed by the sea, with businesses and buildings that range from classic Old Town cottages to modern marine offices and hospitals. Protecting these environments from fire requires more than outdated sprinkler systems or disruptive gas flooding solutions.
With no harsh chemicals such as PFAS, HFCs or CFCs ultimately supporting a lower carbon footprint, FirePro UK’s products, which operate without pressurized cylinders, pipework or over-pressure venting, are therefore proven to be vital in protecting key assets such as transformer rooms, li-ion battery storage, electrical charger technology, heritage buildings and more.
Our advanced technology outshines as an LPCB / UL / VDS-certificated product with a 15-year lifecycle and 3-year warranty, guaranteeing that sustainability goals will be immediately enhanced following the installation completion. Hastings’ key stakeholders, including building control, risk assessors and fire and rescue services—benefit significantly from the advanced technology, enjoying faster installation, lower initial cost and lower cost of ownership compared with pressurized gas systems, while also exceeding the town’s and its suburbs’ rigorous demands.
Our system is powered by a patented compound known as FPC (Fine Potassium Carbonate). When triggered by heat or fire, the compound converts into a rapidly expanding aerosol.
This clean aerosol contains microscopic potassium particles suspended in inert gas, which bind to the free radicals fueling combustion. The reaction is stopped in its tracks.
Why This Technology Stands Out:
This makes it ideal for:
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.
Many buildings across Hastings especially those in the Old Town, or along the exposed seafront present challenges for conventional fire suppression systems. Sprinklers can cause catastrophic water damage. Gas flooding solutions are costly, require complex pipe installations, and are not safe in occupied rooms.
In contrast, FirePro’s condensed aerosol system uses a solid-to-aerosol transformation to suppress fires at the chemical level. This means:
It’s ideal for the varied architectural landscape of Hastings - from Georgian façades to steel-framed retail spaces.
Whether you’re retrofitting an old building or fitting out a new one, we work to make sure the system integrates cleanly and effectively.
Each FirePro unit is self-contained. No pipework. No cylinders. No expensive infrastructure. Annual inspections are typically all that’s needed to keep your system in top condition. And because there’s no risk of residue or water damage, recovery time after activation is minimal.
Yes. FirePro’s small, modular units require no major modifications and are ideal for Old Town’s heritage architecture.
No. FirePro systems are heat-activated and engineered to respond only to real fire events, making them safe for high-heat environments.
While FirePro specialises in active suppression, our systems complement passive solutions like fire doors, dampers, and structural compartmentation.
Most installations are completed in a single day with minimal disruption especially compared to traditional gas or sprinkler systems.
Absolutely. FirePro’s components are corrosion-resistant and well-suited to coastal or salt-air environments like those along Hastings Pier and the harbour.
