Premier Technical Services Group Ltd (PTSG) has been appointed to deliver specialist fire solutions to Blackbird Leys, working with Hill Group.
Oxford City Council and Peabody are working together to bring 294 new affordable homes, shops, green spaces and a new Community Centre to Blackbird Leys. The project is focused on the District Centre (including the ‘top shops’ and Blackbird Leys Community Centre) and land between Knights Road and the Kassam Stadium. Main contractor Hill began preparation work early in 2024.
In this project, engineers from PTSG Fire Solutions Ltd will deliver the design, supply and installation of commercial and residential sprinklers. The facts about sprinklers make compelling reading. No one has ever died in a domestic fire where a fire sprinkler system was fitted. Furthermore, 99% of fires in commercial buildings are controlled by sprinklers alone.
Sprinklers are a simple, cost-effective and highly reliable piece of fire protection equipment. They are valuable in both commercial and domestic properties, reducing injuries by at least 80 per cent and property damage by 90 per cent.
