Fire Protection Guide
If you need help choosing a suitable fire suppression system from our product range, our comprehensive Fire Protection Guide can help you to understand which products are best suited to different fire hazards.
This will in turn help you to decide which product is right for your needs, or to choose several in combination to prevent the various fire risks you face across different areas of your premises and different hazardous materials.
Our Fire Protection Guide looks at the most common fire hazards faced in different commercial environments and industrial settings and recommends suitable products from our range to combat those risks.
Dafo Vehicle Fire Protection Systems
The Dafo Vehicle Fire Protection System offers numerous benefits including a compelling total cost of ownership. By increasing productivity, improving reliability and reducing downtime, the Dafo system ensures you gain greater value from your vehicles over their life span.
Dafo systems require only minimal maintenance: one service per year, instead of the two normally needed by dual agent powder systems. This minimises downtime for your vehicles and delivers substantial total cost savings.
The system is based on more than 40 years of development, with over 100,000 completed installations worldwide. Dafo is an industry leader in vehicle fire protection and the first choice of many OEMs.
As exclusive UK & Ireland distributors of the Dafo Vehicle Fire Protection System, Merlin provide installation, parts and servicing from our base in County Kildare.

More About Merlin
We have more than 25 years of experience in the design, installation and maintenance of commercial fire protection systems. We stock and supply a varied product range to meet most needs, and can advise on bespoke installations of fully accredited fire suppression systems where you need something unique.
Merlin work with organisations in some of the industries that face the greatest risk of fire, whether that’s an increased likelihood of a fire breaking out, or the potential for very large financial and physical losses in the event of an incident. Examples include the renewable energy sector and electric vehicles, where losses from a fire can often reach 100% of the value of the affected equipment.
We have a particular specialism in providing fire detection and suppression systems for the waste management sector, including waste and recycling centres, as well as waste-to-energy operators. Merlin are also the exclusive distributor and service provider for Dafo Vehicle Fire Protection Systems in the UK & Ireland, allowing us to supply one of the highest regarded fire suppression systems for mobile plant and electric vehicles.
Our UK base is in the East Midlands but we also have premises in County Kildare, which means we can provide dedicated service to customers across the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. In cases of emergency, our rapid response and engineering expertise can help to mitigate losses and downtime, to reduce business interruption and get you back up and running as quickly and cost-efficiently as possible.
