Agreement with Link Group

FireAngel (AIM: FA.), one of Europe's leading developers and suppliers of home safety products, announces that it is to supply smoke and heat alarms to a further housing association in Scotland.

FireAngel will supply Falkirk-based Link Group with the Group's wireless interlinked mains-powered and battery-powered smoke and heat alarms.

The agreement with Link Group, that manages 10,000 properties, is the latest in a series of related wins for FireAngel, follows the requirement from 1 February 2019, for greater safety standards as part of the Housing (Scotland) Act.  The new standards require all homes to have a smoke alarm fitted in the living room or lounge and in circulation spaces such as hallways, landings and heat alarms in kitchens.  All fitted alarms are required to be interlinked so they can be heard throughout the property.  Homes are also required to have a carbon monoxide alarm fitted wherever there are fixed combustion appliances.

Neil Smith, Group Chief Executive of FireAngel, commented: "Today's announcement with Link Group is the latest in a series of agreements with housing associations following the implementation of the Housing Scotland Act. We are pleased to see such traction, which further validates how well-placed FireAngel is to respond to demand for compliant, interlinked products following the introduction of the regulation."
