Testifire is a smoke detector testing tool that was launched in 2009 and has since become the tool of choice for small fire companies in the UK. It has evolved to offer enhanced performance, increased versatility, and comprehensive support. Looking ahead, Testifire plans to incorporate an RFID communications module to combine testing with full audit trail traceability, as it continuously develops the product in line with market needs.
