After a near-three-year hiatus FireX will to return to Britain’s capital in May 2022. Set to be hosted at London’s Excel the three day event will commence from May 17 in the heart of the city.

Registrations for the event have officially opened, with the ‘free to attend’ event offering buyer and sellers several opportunities to interact and make key decisions.

Key industry associations are set to attend the event which include the Fire Industry Association (FIA), Association for Specialist Fire Protection (ASFP), Fire Protection Association (FPA), among many more. FireX will offer networking opportunities to reconnect with the industry, ranging from breakfasts and drink receptions to closed-door roundtable discussions.

Meanwhile, the Expertise and Guidance Theatre and the FPA’s InfoZone seminars will offer several avenues for learning and discussions around latest government legislation, industry standards and best practice guidance.

For 2022, FireX has taken the decision to fully commit to supporting and promoting third-party approvals, independent accreditation and competency for construction products and services. This will mean all exhibiting companies with relevant fire protection or prevention systems and materials will need to hold – or be in the process of acquiring – recognised third-party approval on their products.
