In 2017, over 1.3 million fire incidences were reported in the United States, which caused more than 3,400 fatalities and property loss of worth US$ 23 billion, according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). Such incidences have lead governments across the world to develop a regulatory environment to promote the adoption of fire suppression systems across the residential as well as commercial sectors.

Rapidly Expanding Construction Industry will Create Lucrative Opportunities

With the increasing trends of globalization and urbanization, the construction industry has undergone numerous changes and is expected to continue to grow at a rapid pace. Furthermore, recent advancement in facility management, especially in the building automation area, have spurred adoption of fire suppression systems in the newly constructed buildings. Growing concerns of monitoring and controlling emergency situations among consumers, especially in the residential sector, are boosting the adoption of fire suppression systems in building automation, which primarily includes HVAC systems, lightning arresters, power production, and elevators. This is expected to provide an impetus to the growth of the fire suppression systems market in the foreseeable future.

United Technologies Corporation, an American conglomerate and a leading player in the fire suppression systems market, recently announced its decision on separation of the company's commercial businesses into three different entities. The company's fire safety and security product portfolio including fire suppression systems will be handled under Carrier – a leading provider of HVAC solutions.

Johnson Controls, another leading American player in the fire suppression systems market recently launched its fire detection system – Autocall™ – which combines game-changing technology, in the Middle East. By incorporating state-of-the-art in fire detection technology, the company is aiming to deliver reliable, industry-leading, feature-rich fire detection solutions and ultimately gain a competitive edge in the fire suppression systems market in the upcoming years.

Based on an in-depth market research, the Fact.MR study finds that Europe fire suppression systems market is expected to play a pivotal role in growth of the global fire suppression systems market. On account of the stringent governmental regulations associated with the fire extinguishing and fire protection systems, the adoption of fire suppression systems is likely to remain significant high in leading European countries. Furthermore, leading European countries such as the U.K. and Norway have exhorted offshore oil and gas industry player to bolster their investments in fire protection systems including fire suppression systems.

In the Asia Pacific region, the ongoing infrastructural developments in the residential and commercial sectors are likely to create numerous opportunities for players in the fire suppression systems market. However, absence of regulatory framework that mandates end-users to adopt fire protection systems including fire suppression systems may restrict growth of the fire suppression systems market in the Asia Pacific region excluding Japan (APEJ).

Fire suppression systems use a combination of various chemicals to extinguish fire and prevent the human and property loss due to fire. With the help of fire suppression agents, such as dry chemical powders, water, carbon dioxide, foam, steam, and inert gases, fire suppression systems can be used to extinguish fire. Modern fire suppression systems are commonly used in combination with fire detection systems and alarm systems, such as heat detectors, flame detectors, and temperature detectors.

TRY CYLINDER LEVEL TESTING – HS-MLI

HS-MLI is specially designed to non-invasively detect the level in a cylinder with CO2, Halon, FM200, NAF S III, FE 13 or CEA 410 & Novec 1230.

As patented products, HS-MLI is the only CE Approved ultrasonic level indicator available in China and widely used in fire servicing system.
