Lifeline - Defence Systems

Established in 1980, Lifeline is currently the leading manufacturer of on board fire suppression sytems to the motorsport industry. This fact alone makes them ideally placed to supply the Defence Market. But Lifeline has many more outstanding qualities that make them the perfect choice for supplying the most exacting military requirements.

Investment in people and dedicated in-house design and development facilities ensures that our customers have access to the most effective, top quality safety products available anywhere in the world.

The first generation systems produced by Lifeline were manufactured using Halon 1211 as the extinguishing agent; however, due to environmental pressures the manufacture of Halon ceased under the Montreal Protocol. Thus the race was on to devise an effective replacement for an extinguishing agent that had provided manyyears of valuable service. Lifeline took the pioneering route of introducing a lightweight, environmentally friendly, foam based extinguishant - ZERO 2000.

Lifeline now offers a comprehensive range of fire suppression systems using gas, foam or powder extinguishing agents for all kinds of transportation such as armoured vehicles, boats, buses and trains. Systems can also be supplied for the protection of machinery and any other enclosed space that requires fire protection.

Winner of the MIA Small Business of the Year award, Lifeline is ISO9001 accredited and is an Investor in People employer.

Why Lifeline for the Defence Industry?
The motorsport arena is well known for the need for quick response times in problem solving situations. This is equally important in defence applications where human lives are often on the line and the political ramifications of unnecessary loss of life or serious injury are huge.
