Fire Protection: The Market

Current fire management technology is often outdated, complex, difficult to retrofit and even hazardous. This has resulted in an ever-present and increasing threat of fire in domestic, commercial and industrial settings.

Regulations and legislation are being updated around the world to help mitigate risk, but innovation is needed to address this growing issue. An increase in global temperatures is also resulting in a steady rise in the number and intensity of natural fires (forest, bush and wildfires) each year, including in the UK.

The global market for fire protection systems is expected to grow from USD 67.7 billion in 2020 to USD 95.4 billion by 2025*
The UK Government spent approximately £3 billion on fire-protection services in 2019-2020, the highest level since 2010-2011**
Local authorities and social housing providers estimate it could cost £18bn to address the current building safety issues it faces with ~50% of remediation work unrelated to unsafe cladding***
The Company estimate that there are more than 4 million doors in social housing that do not meet current fire regulations, but could be painted with fire protection paint rather than replaced
Fire Protection Association data reveals that the financial impact of fires on businesses and services exceeds £657,000 per incident***
Circa 1.5 million flats in England, that are in modern buildings with four or more floors, may be “unmortgageable” because owners cannot prove that walls meet safety guidance*****
In the UK, 60% of private businesses never recover from a fire******

Heat Management: The Market

Rising energy costs, consumer awareness regarding energy conservation, supportive government policies, and growing investments in environmentally friendly insulation materials are fuelling the global insulation coating materials market.

The global insulating coating market is expected to be worth USD 14.3 Billion by 2025
In the UK alone, an estimated 69% of operational emissions from the built environment relate to the heating of buildings*
The UK has some of the poorest insulated homes in Europe and approximately two thirds (19 million) need better insulation if we are to achieve net zero targets**
It could cost ~£145 billion** to make the 4.4 million*** social housing homes in the UK energy efficient
Retrofitting insulation (adding insulation to existing buildings) can be expensive and disruptive. Some buildings (especially older buildings) do not easily lend themselves to retrofitted insolation
In warmer climates, such as Australia, global warming is increasing the need to insulate buildings to keep them cool
