Marioff, a global leader in water mist fire protection, has introduced one of the fire protection industry's first Internet of Things (IoT) solutions specifically developed for high-pressure water mist systems.
This innovative technology enables continuous system visibility, real-time alerts, and centralised management, raising the standard for safety, operational efficiency, and reliability.
With over 30 years of experience developing the HI-FOG® fire protection system, Marioff continues to evolve its offering by integrating advanced digital capabilities.
The new IoT solution connects seamlessly with existing HI-FOG systems, allowing users to monitor system performance in real time, receive automated alerts for potential issues or maintenance needs, and manage multiple installations from a central interface.
The platform also provides actionable data insights to support predictive maintenance and enhance system reliability.
This marks a significant milestone in Marioff’s long-standing commitment to innovation and safety. As one of the pioneers of high-pressure water mist technology, the company is uniquely positioned to lead its evolution into the digital age.
The IoT solution will initially be made available to a select group of pilot users, with plans for a broader rollout to follow.
Internet of Things
Marioff’s latest development reflects its continued focus on engineering smarter, safer solutions that protect people, property, and operations.
“Our IoT solution marks a significant step forward in fire safety,” said Juha Ilvonen, CEO of Marioff. “It helps ensure systems are always monitored and ready—protecting people, property, and business continuity.”
The new system empowers users with remote access and centralised control across multiple sites.
“This technology gives customers full visibility of their HI-FOG system—no matter where they are,” added Samuli Bäck, manager, Connected Services. “It means faster decisions, proactive maintenance, and ultimately, safer environments.”
The Finland-based company describes its HI-FOG fire protection systems as the result of a simple yet powerful innovation: using high water pressure combined with specially designed sprinklers and spray heads to create a fine water mist that efficiently suppresses fires. This mist is precisely engineered for fire protection, using minimal water while maximising coverage and effectiveness.
Originally developed for large cruise ships, HI-FOG technology has evolved into a highly versatile solution now used in a broad range of settings, from industrial facilities to commercial and residential buildings.
Whether on land or at sea, HI-FOG high-pressure water mist systems deliver reliable fire protection and peace of mind.
Marioff’s advanced HI-FOG water mist fire suppression systems protect a diverse range of buildings, industrial processes, equipment, and critical infrastructure.
