About Us

Providing a safer building from inception to occupation

Creating safer buildings from inception through to occupation, ensuring comprehensive fire safety throughout all phases of a building’s lifecycle.

Helios’s dedicated team brings over 25 years of experience in both statutory approval processes and fire safety consultancy. This extensive expertise offers valuable insights into all aspects of construction and fire safety, including legislative compliance, site-based construction, and product assessment. This balanced skill set enables Helios to deliver bespoke, tailored solutions for complex design and construction challenges.

With a wealth of experience spanning construction, and architectural design, Helios delivers a fully bespoke fire engineering service tailored to the unique demands of complex construction projects. From initial concept through to completion and occupation, our integrated approach ensures that fire safety is seamlessly embedded into every stage of the project.

Helios aims for early end-user and design team engagement to ensure key fire safety elements are included in the design from the outset.

By embedding clearly defined fire safety performance criteria and end-user requirements into the concept design from the outset, Helios ensures that fire safety is not an afterthought but a foundational element. We actively collaborate with architects, engineers, and specialist consultants throughout the design process to deliver a coordinated, high-quality, and resilient fire safety solution tailored to each project’s unique demands.

Helios delivers holistic fire safety solutions that seamlessly integrate life safety, asset protection, and business continuity. By aligning technical performance with operational resilience, we provide robust, viable strategies that meet regulatory requirements and client expectations throughout the building’s lifecycle.
