DEM Fire expands our premium project team

DEM Fire has delivered first-class fire protection for decades, and in recent years we’ve focused on solidifying our capability across fire prevention design and installation. Early in 2020, we reported that we had appointed James Kingi as Project and Design Leader to oversee new processes to streamline and improve operations. We’re pleased to advise that we’re now building on that capability with the appointment of several new team members.

Why integrity and values are key to fire safety and prevention

With our origins as a family business, DEM Fire has consistently tried to uphold the values we began with – of honesty, transparency and quality in every fire prevention solution. Recently we’ve looked at ways to further reinforce our values and ensure they are integral to every team member and everything we do across our fire protection solutions. Here’s who we partnered with, and what it means for our customers.
