Fire protection for transport and logistics


A major fire can quickly bring operations to a standstill, damage reputation and place lives at risk. A swift and competent response to a fire incident can protect your reputation amongst travellers and business stakeholders, but an unprofessional approach may take years to recover from.

As a key part of any effective business continuity process, Wormald’s fire protection systems help prevent minor mishaps turning into serious incidents. Wormald’s transport and logistics fire detection and suppression systems have been chosen for hundreds of major projects protecting airports, train stations, warehouse and distribution centres, road bridges and tunnels, railways and bus interchanges.

Designing a fire protection system requires special expertise in fire behavior and fire protection components – expertise that Wormald has developed over many years in the business. In a transport environment, we start by surveying the facility and location of key equipment, vehicle routes and storage locations. We then design a system to provide effective protection that meets or exceeds relevant standards and achieves your required risk and cost balance.

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

Portable Fire Equipment

Having serviced and functional fire equipment on hand when and where you need it can mean the difference between a minor blaze and a devastating full scale fire. From portable fire extinguishers to fire proof safes, Wormald offers a comprehensive range of top quality fire equipment that gives you a powerful first line of defence against fire. For more information please visit our Fire Extinguishers, Hose Reels & Cabinets, Fire Blankets sections.

Vehicle Fire Suppression Systems

When you combine heat, flammable liquids, turbo chargers, exhaust fumes, electrical components and brakes in the enclosed space of the engine compartment, the potential risk of a fast and furious fire is high. Our end-to-end solutions are designed to rapidly suppress fires in heavy and light commercial vehicles. For more information please visit our Vehicle Fire Suppression section
