Company History

FSS was established in Hamilton, New Zealand and our roots go back to the mid-1970s. The original founder of FSS successfully lobbied authorities to make it easier for customers to fulfil their inspection obligations and they prided themselves in being the most customer focused fire protection provider in New Zealand.

In 2016, FSS was acquired by a new set of owners (including Sam Knowles ex KiwiBank CEO) with the intention to continue the same customer centric philosophy whilst providing the resources and guidance to transform the fire protection and building compliance industry.

As of today, FSS has around 200 staff and including our partner agents, we operate out of 15 branches across New Zealand with ten branches located in the North Island and five in the South Island. Our coverage throughout regional New Zealand is second to none as we service clients sites all across New Zealand………..even the Chatham Islands!

We are proud to remain Kiwi owned and operated. We are not a corporate and we don’t operate a franchise model, we are simply a medium sized firm out to look after our fellow Kiwis. FSS look after small commercial units, massive industrial sites, airports, hospitals, shopping malls and everything in between.
