About Us
At IPCL we believe in providing a first class service in everything we do, both the quality of our work and the service you receive.
We are not prepared to sacrifice quality or safety as a way of reducing cost.
We actively seek out like-minded customers and consciously ignore those who demand the lowest price, regardless of poor quality and its consequences.
We work passionately to help protect buildings and those who operate within them.
We call it ‘integrity built in’.
Who are we?
Established in 1998 and spanning three decades of experience within the Fire Protection construction industry, the foundation of our business is built on strong relationships with key UK construction and fabrication companies whilst delivering a first class service.
Through close working relationships with both clients and suppliers, we are able to provide and implement innovative solutions to all aspects of passive fire protection. Our flexibility and resourcefulness enable us to undertake the most complex of projects on schedule and within budget.
We also take great pride in our excellent Health and Safety record and quality of work delivered by our fully trained and motivated team both office and site based.

Our employees are our most valued asset and we are committed to safeguarding their health, safety and welfare at all times. We believe that early prevention is not only better; it is also more cost effective than a later cure.
We are committed to full compliance with all health and safety legislation. Whenever it is reasonably practicable and appropriate, we will strive to set standards beyond our statutory obligations. We will monitor and review our processes and procedures on an ongoing basis, in order that potential improvements in our health and safety standards can be recognised and implemented.
