**What we do**

Group SCS is well on its way to becoming the UK’s number one choice for ventilation, building management and smoke control solutions.

Our intelligent smoke control, BEMS and passive ventilation systems are installed in thousands of buildings nationwide, and our project teams have earned a reputation for technical excellence, reliability and open collaboration.

Crucially, our fire safety expertise means we are able to guarantee projects are compliant with all building regulations and that, in the case of smoke control, building users are fully protected in the event of a fire. Lots of companies talk about ‘value engineering’ but sometimes that really means ‘cutting corners’. There’s none of that with Group SCS.
