CAST-PRO’s success at 2025 FSM Awards celebrated by C-TEC

26 June 2025

CAST-PRO, C-TEC’s integrated ‘all in one’ fire detection and alarm device, won the Fire Innovation of the Year accolade at this year’s Fire and Security Matters Awards, with the ceremony taking place on 5 June at the CBS Arena in Coventry. The company is celebrating this prestigious achievement.

Fully compatible with the ZFP and XFP CAST addressable fire panels, CAST-PRO is a UK-manufactured, EN 54-certified heat, smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detector with a tone or voice sounder and onboard visual alarm device.

Packed full of features, many of them patented, CAST-PRO doesn’t just reduce installation costs. It also reduces false alarms effectively, detects real fires reliably and indicates true alarm conditions decisively.

At the heart of the CAST-PRO design is the MASC miniature advanced smoke detection chamber. Featuring computer-designed airflow layers and a “revolutionary” non-focal, non-linear prismatic angular bandpass filter, it was specifically designed to allow space for reliable heat and CO detection, a 92 dB(A) tone or 86 dB(A) voice sounder and a C-3-9.4 visual alarm device.

The Judges’ statement read: “CAST-PRO is a remarkable step forward in intelligent fire detection and alarm technology both in terms of conception and design. The device’s algorithms are specifically engineered to reduce false alarms and provide the highest levels of fire detection in real-life situations. A fantastically innovative product.”

Andrew Foster, C-TEC’s managing director, said: “As an independent and engineering-led manufacturer, we have the drive and freedom to be exceptionally innovative. We pride ourselves on always being ahead of the curve, continually creating open protocol products that break the mould. CAST-PRO is designed to significantly decrease installation time, increase cost-savings and provide the highest levels of fire protection.”
