Fire and Life Safety Equipment refers to devices and systems designed to prevent, control, and mitigate the effects of fire and emergencies. This includes fire alarms, extinguishers, sprinkler systems, smoke detectors, and emergency exit signs.
Life-Saving Equipment consists of tools and devices that help preserve life in emergency situations. This includes items such as defibrillators, first aid kits, rescue breathing masks, personal flotation devices, and emergency stretchers.
At Elixir Engineering, we understand that effective fire safety measures are critical for protecting lives and assets. Our comprehensive approach combines fire hazard mitigation, emergency planning, and code compliance to ensure every facility we serve is well-prepared to handle fire-related risks.
Comprehensive Fire Protection Solutions
Fire protection entails not only studying fire behavior and implementing containment systems but also addressing legal requirements through compliant system designs. Our team provides fire protection solutions that meet or exceed building and fire code standards, whether for onshore facilities, offshore installations, or marine applications.
Design-Basis Compliance
Buildings and facilities must adhere to stringent building and fire codes, both during construction and throughout their lifecycle. Our engineers ensure each project complies with the latest codes, from initial design to post-construction maintenance. We work closely with regulatory bodies to certify that each facility is up to date with all fire safety requirements.
The placement and accessibility of firefighting and life-saving equipment are essential for swift emergency response. Our layout designs prioritize ease of access and compliance with local and international standards to maximize safety and efficiency in emergencies.

Efficient and Safe Evacuation Plans
Our fire and emergency evacuation plans are designed for efficiency, taking into account factors such as evacuation time benchmarks, personal mobility considerations, and special technologies like contra-flow lanes. We use simulations and best practices to ensure all individuals can exit safely, even in complex environments.
Comprehensive Emergency Planning
Our “all-hazards” approach adapts evacuation plans for various scenarios, ensuring that they are both flexible and reliable. This strategy minimizes panic and enables smooth, safe evacuations.
At Elixir Engineering, we follow a structured emergency management process, including anticipation, assessment, prevention, preparation, response, and recovery. Our proactive risk management approach allows businesses to minimize disruption, safeguard their assets, and protect personnel by anticipating and addressing potential hazards before they arise.
