Mississauga, Ont.’s Steel Family Holdings has announced the acquisition of Fire Detection Devices Ltd.
“I am thrilled to have the opportunity to bring Fire Detection Devices Ltd., a known and trusted Canadian brand, into the SFH group of companies”, said Jason Steel, President. “Our goal with this new venture is to build on the legacy of this industry pioneer, by investing in the original patented heat detector, to make it even more accessible to the market.”
Fire Detection Devices Ltd. has offered heat detection solutions for a number of years, and includes a variety of spot-type heat detectors on the market.

We feel very fortunate to have met Jason Steel, and we believe SFH will not only continue to produce quality heat detectors but will take Jack’s vision to another level.”
