At Qasr Alhimaya, we believe that true excellence in construction is built on a foundation of rigorous quality control and uncompromising safety. From the moment we begin engineering analyses to long after project handover, these principles guide every decision, every procedure, and every interaction with clients, regulators, and the communities our projects serve.
Qasr Alhimaya—formerly FPG Kuwait—holds both Material Approval and Contractor Approval from the Kuwait Fire Force (KFF). These dual certifications affirm that our fire-protection coatings (cementitious and intumescent) and our installation teams meet the highest standards for performance, reliability, and compliance with stringent fire safety codes
We operate under a robust Quality Management System that aligns with ISO 9001 standards. Every material shipment undergoes batch verification, lab testing, and traceability logging before it ever reaches the site. Our internal auditors then continuously monitor project documentation, ensuring that shop drawings, material certificates, and inspection reports are fully reconciled in real time.
Our Safety Management System follows ISO 45001 best practices. Proactive risk assessments, daily toolbox talks, and mandatory personal protective equipment (PPE) protocols result in a zero-incident safety record on our major projects. Third-party safety audits and emergency response drills are conducted quarterly to ensure readiness and continuous improvement.
Material Traceability and Testing
Each batch of fire-protection coating and steel door hardware is logged with unique identifiers. In-house labs perform adhesion, wet-film thickness, and holiday detection tests—replicating real site conditions. Any deviations trigger immediate corrective actions, documented in our digital QA logs for full transparency.
Shop and Site Inspections
Qualified QA engineers oversee both workshop fabrication and on-site installation. Fabrication shops are audited weekly for dimensional tolerances and welding integrity. On site, our teams employ laser thickness gauges, pull-off testers, and visual checklists to confirm compliance with design specifications.
Final Handover Documentation
Upon project completion, clients receive a comprehensive handover package that includes:
Certified test reports for each coating system and door assembly
Inspection checklists signed by QA and HSE managers
Maintenance and re-inspection schedules tailored to local climate and usage
Before mobilization, every project is subjected to a detailed Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) and a Permit to Work (PTW) system. These tools identify potential hazards—working at height, confined spaces, hot works—and prescribe controls ranging from scaffold inspections to fire-watch protocols.
All field personnel complete mandatory HSE induction courses, specialized equipment training, and annual refresher sessions. Supervisors hold certifications in first aid, fire-watch supervision, and evacuation coordination, ensuring that on-site leadership is prepared for any contingency.
We maintain a no-blame culture for near-miss reporting. Each incident or near miss is logged, investigated, and addressed through corrective and preventive actions (CAPA). Lessons learned are shared across projects, and our digital dashboard tracks leading safety indicators—such as toolbox talk frequency and PPE compliance rates.
Low-VOC and Eco-Friendly Coatings
Our fire-protection systems utilize low-VOC formulations, minimizing on-site air emissions and reducing environmental impact. We partner with global suppliers to source materials that meet Green Building Council criteria and can contribute to LEED certification where required.
Waste Reduction and Recycling
Cutting-edge spray technologies allow us to optimize material usage, reducing overspray by up to 20%. Spent abrasive media, old coatings, and packaging materials are segregated on site and processed through licensed recycling facilities—ensuring compliance with Saudi environmental regulations.
Digital QA/QC Dashboard
Clients and project teams can access real-time dashboards that display test results, inspection statuses, and safety metrics. This transparency fosters trust and enables swift decision-making should adjustments be necessary.
Post-Project Reviews
After completion, each project undergoes a structured Lessons Learned Workshop involving engineers, safety officers, and client representatives. Outcomes feed directly into our corporate HSE and Quality manuals, ensuring that process improvements are institutionalized.
