Everyone at Pertronic Industries was delighted when David Percy was presented with the FPA Australia’s Meritorious Service Award at the Fire Australia 2021 conference dinner in Sydney on Wednesday the 12th of May.

The award recognises Pertronic’s long-standing commitment to fire protection in Australia. Pertronic fire detection and alarm systems have been sold and supported in Australia since 1999, when Pertronic Industries opened an office in Melbourne. Since then, Pertronic Industries representatives have regularly contributed as members of the Fire Detection and Alarm Systems Technical Advisory Committee (TAC/2). TAC/2 supports the development of Australian fire protection standards such as the AS&nbs;1670 series. In addition, Pertronic Industries has been a regular sponsor and participant in FPAA events such as the annual Fire Australia conference and trade show.

After the award dinner, David Percy said: “While it is great to have the personal recognition, this would not have been possible without the contribution that Pertronic staff have made toward our successes in Australia.”

Pertronic Industries Regional Manager (NSW/ACT) Matt Young commented: “What an honour to attend the Fire Australia Conference and Awards Gala Dinner 2021 and see our Pertronic Industries Leader David Percy receive the Meritorious Service Award for his inexhaustible, continual contribution to the Australian Fire Industry.
