Coventry-based Lifeline Fire and Safety Systems is preparing to expand its headquarters in Tile Hill after securing several significant contracts. Established three decades ago, the company specialises in manufacturing fire safety and other safety products for the motorsport and defence industries.
Expansion Driven by Increased Demand
The company, which employs 37 people, is set to add 150sqm of space to its current facility. The need for this expansion stems from a recent increase in business activity and storage requirements, driven by the acquisition of major contracts. Although an extension plan was approved in 2021, it was not constructed. However, the company’s current growth has made the expansion essential.
Council Approval and Development Plans
On 21 August, Coventry council granted approval for the expansion, which will include a two-storey steel-clad storage building adjacent to the main production area and a modest first-floor office extension at Falkland Close. This development is crucial for accommodating the company’s growing operations.
Job Creation and Future Prospects
In addition to expanding its physical space, Lifeline Fire and Safety Systems plans to create three new jobs as part of this project. The company’s continued success and growth in the competitive motorsport and defence industries highlight its commitment to innovation and quality in fire safety solutions.
This expansion marks a significant step forward for Lifeline Fire and Safety Systems, enabling the company to meet the rising demand for its products and continue its trajectory of growth in the years to come.
