The Real Cost of Kitchen Fires
It takes an instant to start a fire. For your business – or your home – to go up in smoke. For between £36,000 and £1m of damage to occur, 8+ weeks of refurbishment and hundreds of hours of lost business.
Kitchen fires occur each year in the UK

Average time to refurbish a damaged kitchen
An instant that leads to 80% of affected hospitality businesses closing within 18 months.
80% of restaurants that suffer a serious fire don’t exist 18 months later
Imagine your kitchen closed for eight weeks as a result of one of the serious kitchen fires that happens every single day. Imagine being landed with a £36,000 bill just to repair the damage, and then eight weeks of interruption without any customers to cover the costs.
MKFS was created to protect those businesses, those livelihoods and those lives. In commercial kitchens, in rented accommodation and in the home.
It’s our job to stop your business from going up in smoke.
Our mission is to protect commercial and residential kitchens from the devastation of fire.
And we’ve got the awards and accreditations to prove we’re up to the challenge.

Don’t Let Fire Cost You Everything
It’s more than just the financial cost. Kitchen fires can lead to injuries, loss of lives and loss of income. Without protection, the best you can hope for after a serious fire is that nobody will be hurt. With the right protection, you can expect to use your kitchen again tomorrow.
