Core Values

Caring Beyond Products

While we’re a leading manufacturer of fire safety products, there’s more to safety than equipment and technology. From collaboration with builders and dealers to community initiatives to partnerships with non-profits, Kidde is committed to working together to create a safer world.

Understanding that the most valuable tool in keeping people safe is knowledge, we share our expertise and resources. This includes equipping fire and life safety professionals with lesson plans and other tools to educate and inform people about fire safety. We also provide our customers with the latest in state fire- and carbon monoxide-related laws and legislation, as well as tips for making their homes and businesses as safe as possible.

At Kidde, we are a world leader in our industry. And we recognise that with leadership comes a responsibility to the communities we serve. That’s why we actively give back through charitable programs and partnerships. In fact, each year, Kidde donates more than 100,000 smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and fire extinguishers to fire departments and non-profit organisations across the country.
