Our approach ensures that fire safety risks are effectively identified and mitigated with practical, real-world solutions that prioritise both ‘statutory’ compliance and ‘operational’ functionality.Supporting statutory compliance and risk reductionRS+ delivers tailored fire risk assessments that go beyond basic templates to address the unique needs of every property, even those that are complex and / or high risk.

We focus on reducing fire risks at their source and supporting both ‘statutory’ and where appropriate, ‘code’ compliance for a wide range of sectors and building types.
