Vanquish Hardware Protection becomes Made in Britain member

Latest News Thu, Sep 25, 2025 4:14 PM

Vanquish Hardware protection has joined Made in Britain to champion UK manufacturing and fire safety innovation.

The Salisbury-based firm, which has over 30 years of expertise in passive fire protection, specialises in bespoke intumescent hardware protection solutions, manufacturing exclusively in the UK at its state-of-the-art facility.

David Sutcliffe, Managing Director of Vanquish, commented: “Made in Britain represents the best of British manufacturing and joining is a proud milestone for Vanquish. We’ve always believed in the power of British manufacturing — in its quality, its consistency, and its ability to lead on innovation.

“This membership reinforces our commitment to delivering high-performance, fully accredited fire safety solutions made right here in the UK.”

Vanquish’s flagship product, FlexiFire, a graphite-based intumescent sheet, is engineered to provide robust expansion and insulation around rebated hardware such as locks and latches. Available in large rolls or precision-cut kits, FlexiFire ensures the integrity of fire door assemblies is maintained, even under extreme heat.

With third-party certification from IFC and fully traceable production, Vanquish’s tailored intumescent kits are trusted by leading hardware manufacturers across the UK and Europe, as well as in the UAE.

“It’s vital that the intumescent materials used in hardware match those that have been fire tested — there’s no room for compromise in safety and it’s often overlooked or substituted for a cheaper alternative which may not perform as effectively,” David added. “Our mission has always been to offer reliable, accredited products that support our partners through the entire fire testing process.”

By joining Made in Britain, which formed as a not-for-profit organisation in 2013, Vanquish not only strengthens its identity as a UK manufacturing leader but also aligns with a network of forward-thinking businesses committed to local production, sustainability, and industry excellence.

Vanquish is the leading UK manufacturer of high-quality intumescent products for hardware protection. To find out more, visit https://www.vanquish-hp.co.uk/ or call 01725 578020.
