OUR VALUES.

Transparency and traceability

We’re open and clear about all the works we do. We record all our works on a digital app and with clients given access to all records on their projects they can see our progress against schedule, costs and test and inspection reports at the click of a button.

Technical Excellence

We’re constantly raising the bar. We work closely with our supply chain to make sure we are at the forefront of product developments, regulatory updates and industry changes to enable us to provide clients with the most up to date, effective and tested solutions.

RIGHT FIRST TIME

We strive to deliver compliant installations at the first fit. Our operatives are highly-skilled and undergo a robust training and development programme to enable them to deliver the highest standards in passive fire protection installation. We also work with our clients to ensure the scope is clearly defined and agreed before we begin work.

Continuous improvement

We’re a proactive business. We’re continuously monitoring, measuring and assessing our performance to ensure that we grow and evolve with the world around us and develop our services, skills and processes to achieve the highest standards in client satisfaction.

Assurance and compliance

We know our works are life-critical and this can make clients nervous. We hold FIRAS accreditation, giving our clients independent assurance of our knowledge, competence and compliance. We deliver peace of mind through our processes too, with a robust inspection and test programme to provide evidence-based assurance to clients and their end users, as well as certification at the end of a project to confirm our works are compliant at the point of handover.

Collaborative relationships

We believe working in partnerships is the most effective way of getting things done. We work closely with our clients’ site management teams and welcome the opportunity to work with the M&E and dryliners before us in the sequence to maximise efficiency across the packages, jointly reducing waste and delivering cost and time savings for the main contractor, without compromising compliance.

OUR TEAM

MEET SOME OF THE TEAM.

Our people are what make our business. From our site labourers to our board of Directors, everyone at Pyrotect plays a key role in ensuring our clients receive the expertise, service and standards they expect from a specialist contractor.

Our Head Office in Ashby de la Zouch, Leicestershire, is home to the backbone of the team. From here we co-ordinate our teams of site operatives, ensuring all our firestopping and intumescent paint contracts run as smoothly as possible.
