Fire Safety Report 2026 coming soon


The way organisations buy fire safety services is changing.

Expectations are rising. Scrutiny is increasing. And more than ever, Responsible Persons and Duty Holders want clear evidence that the providers they choose are competent, credible and trustworthy.

To better understand these changes, NSI and BAFE commissioned independent research exploring how fire safety decision-makers across the UK are selecting suppliers and what factors now influence their choices.

The result is the Fire Safety Report 2026, a new study revealing how the market is evolving and what it means for fire safety providers.

What the research reveals

Based on insights from decision-makers responsible for fire safety across a wide range of organisations, the research highlights a market undergoing significant change.

Among the findings are insights into:

• The hidden gap between what buyers say they value and what they actually check
• The growing importance of independent certification as a signal of trust
• How changing expectations could reshape the competitive landscape for fire safety providers

Some of the results challenge long-held assumptions about how fire safety services are evaluated and purchased.
