Fire Protection Oxford

Oxford's architecture is iconic, its academic institutions world-class, and its fire safety requirements complex.

With its mix of historic buildings, cutting-edge science parks, and growing residential developments, protecting Oxford's properties requires solutions that are clean, compact, and compliant.

FirePro UK provides fire suppression systems and passive fire protection support to engineers, consultants, and fire safety professionals working throughout Oxford and Oxfordshire.

From laboratories at Oxford Science Park to listed college libraries, our systems enable effective protection without compromise.

INTRODUCTION

How FirePro Suppression Technology Works

At the core of every FirePro system is a solid-state FPC compound. When activated, it converts into a rapidly expanding aerosol. This gas-like agent distributes evenly throughout the protected volume and halts combustion by interrupting the chemical reaction, not by smothering or cooling.

FirePro advantages:

  • Safe for occupied spaces (no oxygen depletion)
  • Doesn’t damage sensitive assets (ideal for labs, libraries, data rooms)
  • No pressurised cylinders or pipework
  • Compact design for discreet, space-saving installs
  • Works across Fire Classes A, B, C & F

Whether you're protecting a medical research centre, an IT suite, or listed accommodation, FirePro offers an efficient solution that blends seamlessly with the environment.

Fire Safety Engineering

Navigating Modern Challenges - Sustainably

Today’s modern landscape holds a myriad of fire risk challenges that demand fresh thinking, innovative solutions for a safer, greener future.

Electrical Fire Risk

From sub stations, transformers, HV/LV, electrical distribution, and risers. FirePro swiftly suppresses fire, minimising critical equipment damage

Remote and Unmanned Facilities

In the era of remote sites, FirePro's versatile and easy-to-install systems offer effective fire protection without compromising efficiency.

Lithium-Ion Battery Fires

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.

Mission-Critical Infrastructure

Whether on land, marine or offshore, FirePro ensures fail safe, resilient fire protection for many types of power generation, plant, machinery, even ATEX environments.

A City That Demands Intelligent Fire Protection

Oxford's unique blend of historic charm and scientific innovation makes fire safety particularly sensitive. From Bodleian libraries to student accommodation blocks and hospitals like John Radcliffe, each property presents its own challenges.

With new pressures from the Fire Safety Act 2021 and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, Oxford-based professionals need solutions that simplify compliance without increasing risk or disrupting building integrity.

FirePro systems provide a new generation of protection. There are no pressurised cylinders, no oxygen depletion, and no residue. Instead, you get clean, powerful suppression from a compact unit that fits where traditional systems cannot.

What’s the difference between passive and active fire protection?

Passive protection (e.g. fire doors, compartmentation) contains fire. Active protection (e.g. FirePro) detects and suppresses it. Together, they create robust fire safety strategies.

Can FirePro be installed in Oxford’s heritage buildings?

Yes. The system's compact size and lack of pipes or pressurised components make it ideal for listed buildings with space and aesthetic constraints.

Is FirePro safe to use in occupied or sensitive areas?

Absolutely. Our systems don’t remove oxygen, create pressure surges or leave behind corrosive residues. Ideal for hospitals, schools, and libraries.

Does FirePro install the systems?

No. We supply and support fire protection professionals, providing product guidance, training, and technical documentation.

What certifications does FirePro meet?

Our systems are LPCB-certified, ATEX compliant, and meet EN and NFPA standards. They support compliance with UK fire safety legislation.
