In today’s complex-built environment, specifying a fire detection and alarm system that delivers seamless performance, future-ready flexibility and robust life safety protection is a key priority for specifiers, consultants and end-users. Hochiki Europe’s “Two Technologies. Total Protection.” solution brings together the company’s intelligent fire detection technology and modular control platform to deliver a whole system protection strategy that’s scalable, intuitive and trusted across markets.
At the heart of this next-generation fire safety offering are two technologies engineered to work in perfect harmony: the ESP intelligent addressable fire detection range and the Latitude fire control panel. These technologies are unified by a single open protocol, enabling complete integration and delivering reliable whole building fire protection from a single floor to large, networked estates.
ESP Intelligent Fire Detection — Smart, Flexible and Reliable
Hochiki’s ESP addressable fire detection devices are designed to deliver high-integrity performance with simplified installation and robust diagnostics. By deploying an open digital protocol, the ESP range gives system designers maximum flexibility when specifying detectors, sounders, manual call points and interface modules. This level of flexibility ensures that the system can be tailored precisely to the risk profile of the building - considering occupancy type, environmental conditions and regulatory requirements.
Key benefits of the ESP range include self-testing capabilities that produce clear, evidence-ready reports, reduced false alarms and easier maintenance, all of which help minimise life safety risk as well as total cost of ownership.
Latitude Fire Control Panel - Modular and Scalable
The Latitude fire control panel is a modular, addressable platform that serves as a powerful central hub for fire safety systems. Its plug-and-play design simplifies configuration and expansion, while robust network performance, high capacity, and advanced cause-and-effect programming support complex life safety requirements. Designed to adapt to evolving building needs, Latitude can scale seamlessly from a standalone installation to a fully networked, multi-building system without disruption.
Total Protection from a Trusted Manufacturer
Together, ESP and Latitude deliver total protection - a fully integrated fire detection and alarm solution from one manufacturer, backed by global expertise and compliance to industry standards. Whether you’re specifying for commercial, industrial or institutional environments, Hochiki’s seamless technology stack supports efficient installation, minimal cabling, fewer false alarms and scalable system growth. This coupled with over 100 years of experience in fire safety, backed by pioneering Japanese design, Hochiki is a life safety manufacturer you can trust.
