Ranger Fire and Security has strengthened its presence in the Irish market with the acquisition of Aqua Fire Prevention, a Dublin-based fire safety business.
Founded in 1986, and with 35 years of experience, Aqua Fire Prevention’s core services include the supply and installation of fire extinguishers, service and maintenance of equipment, fire prevention compliance and fire safety training services.
The acquisition marks Ranger’s second acquisition in Ireland since its launch in early 2024, building on last year’s purchase of KSS Fire Suppression.
Diane Brennan will lead Aqua in her role as general manager, while founder Brendan Mooney will remain in the business for a significant period of time to transition it to the Ranger platform. In her role, Diane will lead Aqua’s team – including technicians and operational personnel – to ensure continuity for existing and new clients. Aqua will continue to trade under its current name and operate from Dublin.
Mark Bridges, CEO of Ranger Fire and Security, said: “Aqua Fire Prevention is a standout addition to Ranger. Its well-earned and long-standing reputation, coupled with a customer-first approach, chimes well with our ethos and makes the team a perfect fit for the Group.
“Expanding our footprint in Ireland is a major milestone for us, and with Aqua’s leadership, expertise and knowledge, we’re in a strong position to better meet the needs of Irish business, providing the highest quality fire and security services.”
