VIKING and Johnson Controls Form Global Marine Fire Service Alliance

Johnson Controls International (JCI) and Denmark-based VIKING Life-Saving Equipment have signed a global agreement to provide coordinated fire safety service solutions for the maritime and offshore industries.

As part of the partnership, VIKING has been appointed as the globally approved, trained, and certified service provider for all marine and navy firefighting systems and equipment supplied by JCI.

JCI’s Marine and Navy division is a major global manufacturer of firefighting systems, having delivered thousands of CO2, foam, dry-powder, water-mist, sprinkler, and alternative-gas systems to ships and offshore facilities worldwide.

VIKING, known for its lifesaving equipment and safety systems, will maintain a global stock of JCI system spare parts to ensure rapid service and support for customers across key ports and offshore hubs.

Described by the companies as a ‘partnership in safety’, the alliance reflects their shared goal to enhance reliability and consistency in fire protection services for vessels and offshore assets.

The collaboration aims to set new standards in safety performance, service quality, and customer satisfaction across the global marine industry.
