In a world where safety and compliance are paramount, delivering excellence in passive fire protection has become an essential service. For over three decades, Checkmate Fire has been at the forefront of this critical industry, ensuring that buildings across the UK meet stringent fire safety regulations.
Checkmate Fire was a leading specialist in passive fire protection in the UK, offering a comprehensive range of services across sectors such as healthcare, education, government, social housing, and commercial property. Its services ranged from inspecting and maintaining fire systems to providing turnkey installation solutions, ensuring compliance with increasingly stringent fire safety regulations.
During YFM Equity Partners’ ownership, Checkmate experienced significant growth, establishing itself as a market leader in passive fire protection. In 2024, YFM successfully exited its investment through a sale to IK Partners, a European private equity firm.
