Tracing the Cause
Around 200,000 buildings catch fire in Germany each year. In such cases, determining the cause of the fire is essential in order to initiate further steps. The reason for a fire or explosion is not always immediately clear.
Our court-certified experts investigate the cause of a fire immediately after the incident. The final expert report helps to expedite legal judgments or insurance claim settlements.

Fire and Evacuation Simulations
Every building is unique. Fire and smoke represent equally significant hazards, influenced by the specific spatial layout as well as the materials and airflow conditions. Using our advanced digital simulation technology (FDS – Fire Dynamics Simulator), we can model individual fire and smoke development scenarios with a probability of at least 90%.
Fire Protection
Fire protection is a matter for experts. It encompasses active, system-based, organizational, and preventive fire protection measures—ranging from fire brigade access routes, water supply requirements, and compartmentation to evacuation concepts and fire suppression systems, and much more. Kiwa Wijnveld is your partner from planning through to commissioning—working across all relevant levels, including building authorities, clients, architects, specialist planners, and contractors.
