In addition to fire protection, we are also experienced in electronic security, life safety and communications systems for the marine industry. These solutions include ship perimeter protection, access control, video surveillance, 24/7 security monitoring, smart cards, intruder detection, onboard communications systems and integrated safety command and control systems.

Some of our advanced marine fire detection and suppression technology includes:
