Fireworks Fire Protection

What Fireworks Fire Protection does

Fireworks Fire Protection Ltd is a UK-based private limited company, founded in 1994 and headquartered in Attleborough, Norfolk, that designs, installs, and maintains water mist fire suppression systems for commercial, industrial, and government buildings. The company pioneered water mist fire protection technology in the UK approximately 30 years ago and operates across a regional office network spanning London, Manchester, Glasgow, and Norwich in addition to its headquarters.

Its core offering is a portfolio of high-pressure and low-pressure water mist systems — together with dedicated detection (including flame detectors at oven outfeeds), control panels, stainless steel pipework, and nozzles — engineered and installed to NFPA750 recommendations. Fireworks positions the technology on performance versus traditional sprinklers: fire suppression in approximately 40 seconds, rapid cooling to prevent re-ignition, smoke particle removal, and substantially lower water consumption. The systems are specialized for high-hazard environments including industrial fryers, commercial ovens, data centres, tall buildings, hotels, healthcare facilities, custodial sites, rail infrastructure, automotive plants, archives, and government/heritage properties.

Fireworks generates revenue through three streams: one-time design-and-installation projects, recurring maintenance contracts on installed systems, and pre-sale consulting for new builds and retrofits. GTM is direct enterprise field sales supported by CPD seminars targeted at specifiers, fire engineers, and architects, with named enterprise customers concentrated in UK food processing (McCain Foods, Warburtons, Heinz, Birds Eye, Kettle Crisps). No funding rounds, acquisitions, or leadership changes are disclosed; growth has been organic over three decades.
