Fusion Advanced first in Australia with AS4428.3 2010 fire fighters interface approval via JAS-ANZ and SAI global approval

Following changes in the Building Code for Australia, Fusion Advanced has become the first fire systems supplier in Australia to have its entire product range approved to the latest standards required by the BCA.

Fusion Advanced, a subsidiary of global fire systems suppliers Advanced, is one of Australia’s fastest growing electronic fire systems solutions businesses. With offices in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth its portfolio includes landmark projects such as the Westfield Sydney development.

The Building Code of Australia calls for all fire detection products to have ‘evidence of suitability’, and Fusion Advanced has become the first supplier in Australia to have all of its products certified to JAS-ANZ standards by SAI Global, including the latest AS4428.3 2010 standard.

Fusion Advanced’s products that include the AU5000 digital addressable fire system offer both wired and wireless devices that are also ISO 9001 approved by SAI under the five tick quality programme.

Furthermore, all of Fusion Advanced’s products are approved to the latest AS7240 standards that have already superseded AS4428 and AS1603.

Richard Hitchman, MD of Fusion Advanced, said: “In only five years we’ve gone from a new business to working on some of the continent’s landmark developments because of a single-minded commitment to market leading technology, quality and expertise, something that all of our customers recognise.

“Product approvals are obviously a key part of this promise and we are extremely proud to have become the first Australian supplier to have total approval, by that I mean across our whole product range.”
