Sprinkler System Design & Installation Projects
Whilst all fire safety sprinkler specialists use the same specification of equipment, the design method used can vary considerably.
At Fire Logistics Ltd we draw upon our vast bank of experience and expertise to analyse each situation. We can offer several different designs to deal with the fire hazard in a particular situation, all of which are regulation compliant. The client is then free to evaluate each and, with our help, select the option which provides the optimum solution.
Free Fire Sprinkler System Consultation
We offer an advice and guidance service for future sprinkler / fire protection installations. We can forecast the cost planned of fire protection systems up to 2 years in advance.
We are often asked for to give advice on technical issues associated with fire sprinkler installations and also to advise if the project is feasible. Considering modifications such as changes to the current water supplies means that numerous permutations can be produced for management to review.
In most situations, this analysis and advice is not contingent on us getting the job – you are not obliged to involve us in the project. For a highly detailed appraisal we will need to recover costs, but normally we are able to offer this as a free consultancy service.
Fire Logistics Directors and Design Engineers have vast experience of the fire industry and has designed solutions for a wide variety of challenging situations such as :-
Distribution Warehouse, Prudhoe, Tyneside
The structure is 27m high with 7 levels of storage racking. This project required a major fire engineering solution involving over 6,000 sprinkler heads, probably the largest of its kind in the North East.
Resins and Coatings Production Plant, Newcastle
This incorporated one of the first enhancements of a sprinkler system with an alcohol resistant aqueous film forming foam.
Hotel Bathroom Modules
We undertook the offsite sprinkler fabrication for 1,000 individual hotel bathroom modules. This involves the installation of two sprinklers for each bathroom and a further sprinkler head projecting into the bedroom. All are pressure tested to15 bars for 2 hours, prior to despatch.
Tyre Factory Sprinkler System Upgrade
This client needed to increase the height at which tyres are stored, to 7.6m. To facilitate this, we upgraded the sprinkler system, with each sprinkler head capable of discharging 100 gallons of water / min. The work was completed with minimal disruption to the client’s operations.

In this snack packaging plant we installed sprinkler protection within the new production hall and around new production machinery. All of this work was completed to FM standards.
Fire Safety Sprinkler Design Consultancy
Fire Logistics Ltd are often brought into projects by consulting engineers at early concept stage. We are asked to provide general arrangement drawings for the options under consideration. With these drawings we can give an estimated project costing which will be accurate to +/- 5%.
An example of such a client is Bailey Gomm, M&E consulting engineers / project managers. We acted as consultant for the new 200mm fire hydrant main at a pharmaceutical business in Harlow, Essex.
Factory Mutual Insured Projects
Over half of our clients are Factory Mutual insured and for such work we use only FM approved equipment. Our installations also comply with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards.
