Advanced fire safety solutions

SMART Fire & Safety 2025 Fire & Safety, Products & Solutions

In today’s fast-paced and ever-changing industrial and commercial environments, fire risks are a constant presence. Whether in manufacturing facilities, commercial buildings, or residential properties, the threat of fire can result in devastating loss of life, assets, and business operations. With fire incidents on the rise, it is crucial to choose fire safety solutions that are proven, reliable, and capable of providing early detection and efficient response.


“Failure to carefully select fire safety systems can lead to catastrophic outcomes, including delayed responses, increased damage, potential loss of life, and significant financial repercussions. The importance of partnering with a trusted supplier who offers advanced, compliant, and efficient solutions cannot be overstated. Choosing the right fire safety system ensures not only compliance with international standards, but also the peace of mind that comes with knowing your property and personnel are adequately protected,” says Anita Hermaans, product manager at the Elvey Group.

Elvey is a trusted supplier of Brigit Fire’s range of fire, smoke, and off-gas detection products, along with intelligent analytics and integrated systems designed to enhance safety and efficiency in various environments.

The company’s precision detection systems, featuring multi-sensor capabilities, allow for early identification of fire, smoke, or gas hazards. These advanced detectors are designed to minimise false alarms, reduce downtime, and optimise response times, critical in ensuring the protection of lives and assets.

“Brigit Fire’s commitment to integrated smart technology further enhances safety systems. By seamlessly connecting fire detection with video surveillance platforms, Brigit Fire’s systems enable real-time visual verification of incidents. This integration provides emergency responders with immediate access to vital situational context, facilitating faster and more informed decisions during emergencies,” says Hermaans.

Professional development

In addition to its trusted products, Brigit Fire invests heavily in the professional development of technicians, installers, and facility managers. The company offers certified training programmes to ensure the correct deployment and maintenance of all systems. These programmes adhere to local and international fire safety standards such as SANS, NFPA, ISO and SAQCC, ensuring that every installation meets or exceeds compliance expectations.

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in Brigit Fire’s systems is a game-changer, promoting predictive maintenance and risk analysis. These technologies enable real-time monitoring and predictive alerts, improving situational awareness and enabling proactive measures to prevent system failures before they occur. As the fire safety sector continues to embrace automation, Brigit Fire is creating intelligent solutions for safer environments.


Facilities management

Beyond detection, Brigit Fire also supports comprehensive facilities management through its integrated systems, offering tools for automated diagnostics, remote monitoring, and pre-planned maintenance. This enables businesses to efficiently manage their fire safety systems, ensuring maximum uptime and enhanced safety.

In industries where immediate response is critical, such as industrial plants or remote operations, Brigit Fire provides solutions for private and industrial fire services. These include communication systems, control room design, and rapid deployment tools, ensuring on-the-ground fire teams are fully supported and ready to act.

“By offering a full suite of advanced detection technologies, AI-driven analytics, and integrated systems, Elvey continues to support businesses across southern Africa in safeguarding their people, property, and assets,” says Hermaans.
