Why water mist
High-pressure mist controls fire fast while using a fraction of the water — protecting the building, its contents and the people inside.
Suppresses fire with up to 70% less water than a sprinkler system — dramatically less flooding and water damage to property and contents.
Runs straight off the mains, so there’s no bulky storage tank to find space for — saving room, weight and installation cost.
Each nozzle activates individually at around 57°C, so mist is released only where it’s needed — not across the whole building.
Fine 50–150 micron droplets cool the fire and displace oxygen at once, knocking it down fast and helping prevent re-ignition.
Water mist vs sprinklers
Both put the fire out. Only one does it without soaking the building, its contents and everything you own.
✓ Up to 70% less water than a sprinkler system
✓ No bulky water storage tank to find space for
✓ Far less water damage to property and contents
✓ Easier to retrofit in occupied and listed buildings
✓ Discreet nozzles instead of bulky sprinkler heads

How it works
A certified system that detects, suppresses and protects — without the disruption of a traditional sprinkler.
Heat-sensitive nozzles monitor the space and trigger automatically at around 57°C.
High-pressure pumps release a fine mist at 80–90 bar, cooling the fire and displacing oxygen.
The fire is knocked down fast using minimal water, limiting damage to the building and contents.
