What we do can and does save lives
I have always been fascinated with fire and the way it moves, it’s not as unpredictable as people think and can be manipulated to follow a direct path. I think this is what lead me into this industry.
I was involved in the Passive Industry before I started Bakker PFI Ltd. It soon became apparent there was a need for more smaller Passive Companies to keep up with the demand in the industry.
Small passive fire installation companies are able to move faster, adjust quicker to change and hold more accountable for progress and workmanship from each employee.
Developing a good working relationship with our clients and having open direct lines of communication are the foundation of our business.
I’ve enjoyed seeing the products we used being tested and seeing the necessity for Passive Fire Installation in the construction industry.
