FLAMEX Inc. is a leading supplier of customized industrial process fire prevention and protection equipment. We specialize in the protection of facilities that handle combustible dusts that utilize pneumatic dust collection and air filtration systems. To combat the common problem of dust collector fires and explosions, our company pioneered the utilization of a new technology in North America by introducing the FLAMEX Spark Detection and Extinguishing System in 1977. It soon became the first system of its type to gain a Factory Mutual Approval. Since that time, thousands of FLAMEX Systems have been installed in numerous industries across North America and beyond. In 2005, our company became the first North American acquisition by our long time supplier, MINIMAX GmbH & Co. KG. 

Why Choose Us?

FLAMEX Inc. has the unique advantage of being the only North American supplier of Spark Detection and Extinguishing Systems and related products that is part of a major global fire protection equipment manufacturing organization. Our parent company MINIMAX GMBH & Co. KG has over 100 years of experience in industrial fire protection and has a commercial presence that extends around the globe. With its acquisition of Viking Sprinkler Corporation in November 2009, MINIMAX has become a true world leader in fire protection technologies becoming an organization with over 1 Billion Euro in annual turnover. The experience, technical expertise and wealth of resources possessed by our ISO 9001 manufacturing partner affords FLAMEX the unique ability to offer a much broader product line and more comprehensive protection solutions to address the requirements of varied industrial applications than would a typical vendor. In fact, the technical innovations by MINIMAX have led to the North American introduction of the first FM Approved Spark Detection and Extinguishing System (FLAMEX) and the only FM Approved Water Mist System used for the protection of Continuous Wood Board Presses (MINIFOG). While some products that are similar in concept might be sourced elsewhere, the variety of products, quality, features, service and experience that FLAMEX can offer can not be paralleled by others.
