Why Kings Fire is the Best Fire Safety Partner for Motor Racing Teams

Motor racing environments are dynamic and complex, with fire safety requirements extending beyond static offices and workshops to the fast-paced, high-risk settings of pit lanes and race tracks. At Kings Fire, we have hands-on experience working with championship-winning teams like Garage 59, based in Brackley, ensuring their offices, workshops, trucks, and pit lane setups are equipped with the right fire safety measures. Our proven track record demonstrates our ability to meet the unique demands of the motorsport industry, delivering solutions that protect both personnel and high-value equipment.

The introduction of advanced technologies, such as lithium-ion batteries in modern race cars, has transformed fire safety needs in motorsport. Installing incorrect fire extinguishers could result in catastrophic losses, potentially costing teams tens of thousands—or even millions—of pounds. Kings Fire stays ahead of the curve by leveraging our extensive supplier network to provide cutting-edge solutions, including the latest lithium-ion battery fire extinguishers (Lith-Ex) available in various sizes. These specialised extinguishers are designed to tackle the unique fire risks posed by high-performance vehicles, ensuring maximum safety without compromising machinery or vehicles in the event of a fire.

Compliance with Motorsport UK and British Standards regulations is critical for any racing team. Kings Fire is BAFE-approved, ISO 9001:2015 accredited, and a member of the Fire Industry Association (FIA), ensuring all our services and equipment meet or exceed British Standards and motorsport-specific requirements. Our fire extinguisher servicing includes all consumable parts required annually, as per British Standards, with no hidden costs, making budgeting straightforward and transparent. We also provide digital fire equipment asset registers at no extra charge, helping teams stay organised and compliant with regular inspections and monthly checks.

Security and confidentiality are paramount in the competitive world of motor racing. Kings Fire respects the sensitive nature of your operations and strictly adheres to Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs). Our team works discreetly on-site, whether installing or servicing fire safety equipment, giving you peace of mind that proprietary information about your team or vehicles remains confidential.

Unlike static environments, motor racing teams require fire safety equipment that can travel with them to tracks worldwide. Kings Fire excels at providing portable, robust solutions that perform reliably in diverse conditions. From pit lane fire extinguishers to workshop setups, we ensure your equipment is strategically placed and capable of extinguishing various fire types without causing collateral damage to sensitive machinery. Our comprehensive fire safety surveys assess your specific needs, ensuring every piece of equipment is fit for purpose, whether at your headquarters or on the circuit.
