Pye-Barker Fire & Safety announced the acquisition of Pyrotech, a fire suppression, extinguisher and life safety equipment provider serving Missouri and Illinois. 

Pye-Barker, which placed ninth on the 2023 SDM 100 rankings, continues to execute on its aggressive acquisition strategy to build a national platform that is unparalleled in the industry. The company bills itself as the largest private full-service and fully integrated fire protection, life safety and security services provider in the United States. 

With the addition of Pyrotech, Pye-Barker will have its first physical location in Missouri, bringing the company to 163 branches nationally. 

Pyrotech specializes in 24-hour service, inspection, testing, maintenance and installation of suppression systems for commercial kitchens, food trucks, paint booths and industrial applications. The Pyrotech team also services fire extinguishers and life safety equipment including emergency lighting, exit signs, first aid stations and defibrillators. 

From its headquarters in St. Louis, Pyrotech has served the greater Missouri and Illinois area since 1998 and is committed to delivering high-quality work with a personable approach to customer service. 

“I’m excited about the opportunities this partnership with Pye-Barker will present for our team members and our business to grow,” said Pyrotech Co-Owner Terry Nolan. 

“We’re proud to join a flourishing company like Pye-Barker that is committed to fostering family culture and investing in ongoing, hands-on training for our team," added Pyrotech Co-Owner Tim Sauer.
