Ensuring the safety of your valuable aircraft and personnel is paramount in the aviation industry.
Recognizing the distinctive complexities inherent to fire safety within aircraft hangars, our team at Viking excels in developing and implementing a diverse array of fire protection systems. These systems are meticulously customized to serve vital sectors such as aircraft hangars, aeronautics, and specialized industrial facilities, precisely addressing the specific risks they entail.
Our cutting-edge fire protection systems are tailored to the aviation industry. Viking built its reputation of excellence one project at a time, with the help of a team of professionals, and through the proven efficiency of its systems, which are manufactured using only high-quality products by manufacturers such as Viking Corporation and FireFlex Systems.
Aircraft Hangars Fire Risks
- Aviation Fuels: Within these hangars, you’re dealing with the storage of highly flammable aviation fuels, such as jet fuel and aviation gasoline.
- Aircraft Maintenance: The maintenance and repair activities conducted in hangars involve processes like welding and cutting, which generate sparks and open flames. These activities heighten the risk of fires during routine procedures.
- Electrical Systems: Complex electrical systems are integral to aviation operations, but they also introduce the risk of electrical fires, potentially caused by malfunctions or short circuits.
- Chemical Hazards: Hangars may house various chemicals for maintenance purposes. Some of these chemicals can be flammable or reactive, amplifying the risk of chemical fires.
- Lithium Batteries: Modern aircraft rely on lithium-ion batteries, which, if damaged or overheated, can ignite or explode, posing a significant hazard.
Fire Protection Systems for Aircraft Hangars
Given these unique risks, our team specializes in tailored fire protection solutions designed expressly for aircraft hangars. We understand the intricacies of these risks and can work with you to ensure compliance with NFPA regulations and the implementation of advanced fire suppression systems.
We offer the FireFlex ICAF compressed air foam system, a deluge-type system that uses a balanced piping network. This system can be activated by electric, pneumatic, or manual release and is FM Approved as a local application extinguishing system for class B pool fires, spill fires, and cascading fires. Our commitment to quality ensures that your hangar is equipped with the best-in-class fire protection technology.

CIAM – Montreal East Airport Fuel Supply Terminal
Project of the Corporation Internationale d’Avitaillement de Montréal (CIAM), aimed at building a new terminal to deliver fuel to Montreal’s airports. This project includes a marine terminal along the St. Lawrence River, pipelines, a loading station for railcars and tanker trucks, and connections for fuel transportation.
As part of this large-scale project, Viking Fire Protection played a key role by providing the complete design, supply, and installation of the fire protection and fire alarm systems. Our team worked closely with the project engineers and CIAM officials to ensure full compliance with applicable standards and optimal protection of critical infrastructure.
