Fire Detection and Suppression

The hnla Fire Safety Engineering team has experience in the design, specification and testing
of fire detection and suppression systems for a wide range of applications.
Where prescriptive design codes are inadequate or unsuitable for the application in question,
we can develop performance-based solutions based on our extensive experience coupled with advanced analytical techniques. We can apply this methodology equally effectively for sprinkler,
deluge, water mist and ‘clean agent’ fire suppression media.
