| HISTORY |
SimplexGrinnell was established in 2001, the result of a merger under
Tyco International of Simplex and Grinnell, two longtime leaders in
the fire industry. Simplex had for decades been recognized as the
leader in electronic fire alarm systems. Grinnell was the longtime
industry leader in fire sprinkler and suppression, with a heritage
in fire protection that reached back to the 1880s, when Frederick
Grinnell patented the first automatic sprinkler. Today, the history,
strength and experience of both Simplex and Grinnell have been melded
into SimplexGrinnell.
