Tandi Sprinklers LLP are delighted to announce we have been awarded certification for their installation of domestic fire sprinkler systems by FIRAS.

FIRAS is voluntary, third party certification for installation contractors of both passive and active fire protection systems, operated by Warrington Certification, and accredited by UKAS to BS EN 17065.
