The C4 Difference

What Makes Us Different

01

Technical Excellence

SAQCC Level 5 qualified with FDIA accreditation. Our engineers design and install to the highest South African standards: SANS 10139, SANS 10400-T, and SANS 246.

02

Commercial Focus

We specialise in commercial and industrial fire systems: warehouses, factories, data centres, wine estates, and cold storage facilities. Not residential, not retail.

03

Client-Centric Approach

Every project starts with a free site assessment. We listen first, design to your needs, and maintain the relationship long after installation with ongoing support and monitoring.

04

24/7 Emergency Response

South Africa's first dedicated 24/7 fire panel monitoring service. When your alarm triggers at 3am, our team is already responding.

Our Team
CLB

Carlo Le Brun

Founder, CEO & Sales Director

Carlo built his career from the ground up — starting at Nedbank, then becoming one of Sanlam's youngest financial planners and a multi-Aviator Award winner at Old Mutual. He moved into fire and security at Tyco, was headhunted by Fast Fire & Security where he rose to top salesperson and co-owner, and then founded C4. He leads every major project with the same principle that made him successful in finance: know your product inside out, and always put the client first. Under his leadership, C4 secured SAQCC, BSI and FDIA accreditations.

Jermaine Thompson

Team Leader & Project Coordinator

Jermaine has been in fire detection since 2008 — starting as an Assistant Fire Technician, progressing to critical-infrastructure work at Cape Town International Airport by 2010, and earning his SAQCC accreditation at SSC on major commercial projects. He first worked under Carlo at Fast Fire, specialising in large aspirating detection installations in cold storage facilities, and joined C4 from its inception. Today he runs the technician team, coordinates project managers and moderates every C4 site — nothing gets signed off until it is genuinely compliant and genuinely safe.

Bruce

Project Manager

Bruce has spent over two decades delivering fire protection and integrated security across commercial, industrial, and residential estate environments. He started as a Field Technician at Provicom in 1997 and progressed through senior roles at Chubb Integrated Services, Secutron, and Starcomms — where he served as Divisional Head leading complex projects at scale. At C4 he oversees end-to-end project delivery aligned to SANS 1475 and SANS 1039, combining strategic oversight with hands-on technical expertise to deliver solutions built to endure.

CE

Chris Evert

Fire Detection Consultant

Chris entered the fire industry in 2013 and quickly found his passion — not just selling systems, but believing in the work. In 2016 he was brought in to open a Cape Town office for a Gauteng-based group, then specialised in fire detection from 2018, ran his own consultancy, and headed up the fire division for a global company. At C4 he covers fire detection, equipment, sprinklers, access control, CCTV, signage and fire doors — everything under SANS 10400 Section T — with a no-nonsense focus on what is legally required versus nice-to-have.

LM

Leroy Miller

Senior Sales Consultant

With over 20 years of sales experience and more than 11 years in the fire detection and life safety industry, Leroy brings real-world expertise and deep technical understanding to every client interaction. Working his way up from entry-level roles through respected companies like Alert Engine Parts, FS Systems, Integretek, and Fast Fire, he built a career on consistency, strong relationships, and delivering practical fire detection solutions that protect both people and property.

Sales Representative
