Conveyer Systems

Following two major fires on the processing belts of a metal recycling system FireWard were commissioned to provide a fire suppression system that could not only provide protection in an extremely harsh environment, but also act fast enough to catch a fire as it moved through the building on the high speed conveyers. This extremely challenging brief saw the development and patent of our High Pressure Powder system. A solution that has never been attempted before and now acts to suppress fire as it travels along production belts eliminating the need for manual fire fighting whilst allowing zero down time to the line usually caused by shutting down the system to make an attack on the fire.
