Lifeline was established in 1980, and soon became the leading manufacturer and supplier of on-board fire systems to the racing car industry.
Lifeline took the pioneering route of introducing a lightweight, environmentally friendly, foam extinguishing agent - Zero 2000.

• Zero 2000 was specifically blended for use in motorsport and provides better adhesion to surfaces when discharged, thus preventing re-ignition. Zero 2000 is the product of rigorous testing and development, rather than off-the-shelf foam designed for commercial and domestic use.
• Lifeline cylinders are fabricated from high quality aluminium, using spun end-caps and a rolled centre section to ensure greater structural integrity. All cylinders undergo hydraulic and pneumatic leak tests and are British Lloyds certified.
• Zero 2000 nozzles were developed in conjunction with a leading manufacturer specifically for the application of Zero 2000 foam. A redesigned tip gives a full cone pattern, offering increased levels of protection. Unlike some nozzles, Zero 2000 nozzles work just as effectively after several discharges.
• Lifeline's patented dip tubes are the most flexible available ensuring total contents discharge, even if the cylinder is inverted. The materials used ensure high levels of efficiency and prohibit electrolysis from corroding the cylinder (unlike some other brands).
• Lifeline kits are supplied with more components than most, for example a saloon/rally kit includes a bulkhead fitting, pipe clips and spark stickers for a neater and more efficient installation. All kit components have been rigorously tested and chosen for quality, reliability and ease of use.
• Lifeline uses only specialist electrical connectors that reduce the risk of electrical interference and therefore accidental discharge.
  High quality push-in pipe fittings from the market leading manufacturer are supplied to allow easier installation.
• Lifeline electrical firing heads use a break seal mechanism - there are no moving parts ensuring maximum reliability.
• Lifeline uses only aluminium brackets, fitted with high security stainless steel straps and over-centre clips for increased strength.
• Lifeline offers an after sales service that is second to none, including a full range of spares and accessories and our unique 24 hour emergency refilling service. Knowledgeable staff are always on hand to assist and advise.
• Tamper-proof seals on Zero 2000 systems ensure that customers receive systems just as they left the factory.
• In addition to the standard range Lifeline offers a bespoke service, including special bottle fabrication in either aluminium or carbon fibre to your own specification and specialist kits (e.g. automatic kits with flame detectors and audible warning alarms etc.)
