Light Science CEO on PFP growth and new fire safety accreditation

Light Science Technologies Holdings PLC (AIM:LST) CEO Simon Deacon talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s progress in its Passive Fire Protection (PFP) division, highlighting the growth opportunities ahead. Deacon explained the importance of recently receiving the BS 8670 accreditation from Construction Online, which he described as “very significant” for the business. He noted that Construction Online was originally a government department and has been supporting thousands of businesses across Europe for more than 20 years in compliance and supply chain management. According to Deacon, the new accreditation is designed to “streamline the supply pre-qualification process and will really help unblock the delays across the construction industry and supply chain.” Deacon said the accreditation will further validate Light Science Technologies’ expertise across safety, leadership, risk management, and fire and life protection. He also discussed the company’s pipeline, which has grown to around £28 million. Recent orders worth approximately £0.5 million have been secured across the UK, covering projects in schools, hotels, social housing, and more. Looking ahead, Deacon said both the PFP and AgTech divisions are expected to be the strongest revenue generators, with net profit anticipated for the group in 2026 as backlogs clear.
