Engineering Excellence

There’s something very special about Nittan engineering, design and build quality. Unlike almost anyone else in the industry, Nittan has considerable specialist expertise in designing and supplying fire safety systems for some of the most demanding markets on earth. We have specialist divisions dedicated solely to engineering for oil refineries and marine applications for example. Both industries set safety standards well in excess of those demanded in most other fields.

When you specify a Nittan system, you’ll directly benefit from this unrivalled expertise and commitment to standards far above the industry norm.
