Fire suppression systems prevent or extinguish the spread of fire in a building. Fire suppression systems use a mix of wet agents and/or dry chemicals to suppress equipment fires. When fires are stopped early loss of life is minimal since fire-related deaths occur once the fire has moved past the early stages. Building and internal system damage is also reduced if the fire isn't given time to spread, making fire suppression systems almost as important in areas where there are rarely people, but there is lots of key equipment, like in data centres.

AOS Stakeholders turned to me as an independent fellow business owner with a long history of selling & acquiring businesses to control and transact for them whilst they carried on running their business." - John Peers, Managing Director UPS Systems Group 

"John understood the real world pitfalls, costs and other implications of selling the business and we feel this couldn't have been done without him." -
