Advanced Detection Systems: Fortifying Against Common Industry Risks
Viking Fire Protection provides a full range of marine fire protection services designed to meet the complex safety demands of vessels operating in Canadian waters. Our marine-certified technicians are experienced in the installation, inspection, maintenance, and servicing of all major fire protection systems onboard.
We also provide fire and smoke detection and alarm systems, ensuring early warning and rapid response capabilities in compliance with Transport Canada, SOLAS, and class society standards. Whether for a commercial fleet, naval vessel, or pleasure craft, Viking delivers reliable marine fire protection that prioritizes life safety and operational integrity.
Specialized Fire Protection for Marine-Specific Challenges
Protecting marine vessels from fire involves unique challenges due to confined spaces, flammable materials, and limited access to emergency response. Ships carry complex systems and cargo that increase the risk of fire spreading rapidly in enclosed environments. Electrical faults, engine room overheating, galley fires, and fuel leaks are common ignition sources.
We offer fixed fire extinguishing systems including clean agent gas and CO₂ suppression systems, high-pressure water-spraying and water-mist systems, foam systems, automatic sprinkler systems, fixed dry powder suppression systems, and specialized galley hood and deep fat fryer suppression systems for onboard kitchens. In addition to fixed systems, we supply and service portable fire extinguishers tailored to various vessel classes and hazards.
Proven Excellence Across Varied Environments
Onboard crews must rely on fast, reliable fire detection and suppression systems to manage these hazards without external assistance.
Regulatory compliance with standards such as SOLAS and Transport Canada adds another layer of complexity, requiring specialized fire protection solutions tailored for marine environments. Effective marine fire protection minimizes downtime, protects crew and cargo, and ensures vessel safety at sea.
