THE SHARD,
LONDON
Towering 309.6m, London’s iconic
Shard is the tallest building in
Western Europe. 11 hectares
(27 acres) of diverse floor space
includes 72 habitable floors, 306
flights of stairs and 44 elevators.
A public plaza, retail space,
restaurants, hotel and spa, private
residences and observation
galleries are just some of the areas
requiring fire protection. SPP
pumps feed a specialist sprinkler
system ensuring zoned protection
for all floors, also eliminating the
need for pressure reducing valves
in line with EU regulations.
