Smoke Ventilation Contractors
Whilst working as fire engineering consultants, Gerard Sheridan and fellow founding director Andy Riley, developed an innovative design for a mechanical smoke ventilation system.
This proved to be a flexible, high performance and cost-effective solution to smoke ventilation. After conducting substantial product testing and development the system was ready to install on projects. However, when Gerard and Andy were unable to find a suitable contractor to satisfactorily perform the installation, this informed the decision to set up FDS Contracting, as a specialist contracting company.
