HiPro Industries Ltd.

What HiPro Industries Ltd. does

iCO Products Limited, the operating brand of HiPro Industries Ltd., manufactures patented residential water mist fire suppression systems from its headquarters in Maidenhead, United Kingdom, with an additional UK office in Bristol and a regional office in the United States. The company's product portfolio centres on high-pressure and low-pressure water mist systems (operating at approximately 12 L/min and 29 L/min respectively), supported by a Sprinkler Monitoring Panel (BS 9251:2021-compliant), a double-knock Flow Controller, ultra-low-profile nozzles (3mm below ceiling, RAL colour-matched), and compact pump units that connect directly to mains water. Underlying technology relies on ultra-fine water droplets that target all three elements of the fire triangle, achieving up to 80% lower water consumption than conventional sprinklers; the nozzle and pump architectures are patented in the UK, USA, Australia, and Europe, with UAE patents pending, and independently validated by Warringtonfire and Baltic Fire Laboratory.

The business operates a channel-only go-to-market, selling exclusively through a network of accredited fire suppression installers (20+ named UK installers plus overseas partners in the USA, Australia, Europe, and the UAE) who handle surveying, design, installation, commissioning, and maintenance. End customers include residential property developers, care home operators, student accommodation providers, government clients (e.g., Merseyside Fire and Ambulance Service), and individual homeowners, with named case studies covering new-build housing and multi-occupancy residential buildings. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; access is restricted to certified installer accounts. Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales of nozzles, pumps, monitoring panels, and flow controllers, complemented by technical documentation and support services delivered through the installer channel.

iCO Products holds LPCB ISO 9001 certification, BSI certification to BS 8458:2015, and was the first UK manufacturer to complete independent fire testing to BS EN 14972-17 (the European residential water mist standard replacing BS 8458:2015 in July 2025). The company maintains memberships in the Fire Industry Association (FIA), Fire Protection Association (FPA), International Water Mist Association (IWMA), and Made in Britain, and operates an 11–50 employee organisation that sponsors the International Water Mist Conference and engages in CPD training for architects and specifiers.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Johnson Controls (Tyco Fire Protection): Global fire protection incumbent (including legacy Tyco products) with a broad portfolio of sprinklers, suppression, detection, and alarm systems. Not a water-mist pure-play but a frequent specification competitor in residential and commercial builds.
• Honeywell Building Technologies: Broad fire alarm and life safety portfolio through brands such as Notifier and Morley-IAS, often competing for the same specification slot in residential and multi-occupancy buildings where iCO's monitoring panel integrates with third-party fire systems.

Direct peers

• Fike Corporation: Global fire protection supplier offering water mist systems alongside explosion protection and gas detection. Comparable product category and customer base (architects, specifiers, building owners) for residential and light commercial fire suppression.
• Janus Fire Systems: US-based manufacturer of water mist and clean agent fire suppression systems. Comparable in product architecture and installer/specifier-driven GTM, and a competitor as iCO expands into the United States.
• Danfoss Fire Safety (Sem-Safe): Division of Danfoss supplying high-pressure water mist fire suppression systems primarily for marine and offshore applications. Comparable high-pressure water mist technology and could expand into adjacent residential and commercial segments.
• Securiplex: UK-based water mist fire suppression system manufacturer with a comparable focus on residential and commercial applications. Direct head-to-head competitor for UK installer relationships and BS EN 14972-17 specification wins.
• Viking Group: Major fire suppression equipment manufacturer (now part of Carrier) producing both traditional sprinklers and water mist systems. Comparable in product mix and installer-channel GTM, and a likely competitor for the same specification opportunities.
• Fire Eater International: Danish-headquartered manufacturer of water mist fire suppression systems for industrial, marine, and residential applications. Direct competitor in residential water mist technology with overlapping European installer networks.
• Marioff: Global leader in water mist fire suppression under the HI-FOG brand, serving marine, oil & gas, and built environment applications. Most direct competitor to iCO on high-pressure water mist technology and is the dominant incumbent iCO must displace in international markets.
• Minimax: European manufacturer of water mist and sprinkler-based fire suppression systems. Closely comparable in residential/light commercial water mist technology and faces the same BS EN 14972-17 regulatory transition as iCO.
