Central government are back-tracking on their pledge to do everything in their power, regardless of cost, to protect residents living in high-rise blocks following the tragic and avoidable Grenfell Tower fire, in which at least 80 people lost their lives.

As a direct result of the Grenfell Tower tragedy, Sheffield Council have taken the decision to retrofit all 24 council tower blocks in Sheffield with sprinkler systems.

London’s awesome hosting of the Olympic Games in 2012 was the springboard for the creation of a new dynamic heart for East London.

Automatic sprinkler systems are used more than any other fire protection system. No less than 40 million sprinkler systems are fitted worldwide each year.

Sensors are sophisticated devices that are frequently used to detect and respond to signals. A new wireless sensor developed by engineers at the University of California, Berkeley, can measure skin hydration.

Applications Engineering have been operating since 1983, supplying some of the world’s most reputable manufacturers. We are proud to be supplying three of London’s most prestigious developments with our innovative and compact fire sprinkler valve sets.

We were contacted by Random International to see if we could help them with the issue of flow monitoring for their incredible Rain Room installation at the Shanghai Yuz Museum; we duly obliged and supplied various Sika VMM flow sensors for the application.

Applications Engineering are thrilled to announce that we are now an official distributor for all Sika flow sensors and flow switches after a very healthy relationship based on the supply of flow switches for our fire sprinkler valve sets.

Following on from the success of exhibiting at BAFSA’s Fire Sprinkler 2010 and 2012 events we had the pleasure of taking one of 37 exhibitor stands at the prestigious Fire Sprinkler International 2014 exhibition and conference held at The Grange Hotel in central London in May 2014.
