eBook: Performance Stations

Station design is no longer just about housing apparatus. It’s about supporting the people who respond from it. As departments plan renovations or new construction, the goal should not be to replicate legacy designs. It should be to build stations that actively support recovery, resilience and sustained performance. The future fire station is not just operationally effective — it is intentionally designed for firefighter health.

Training Opportunities for First Responders

Maximizing space and equipment in a fire station to offer myriad training opportunities keeps your team at the top of their game. In-house training spaces eliminate the need for traveling to outside training facilities and builds a culture of continuous improvement.

Health and Wellness for Fire Safety

FGMA has pioneered design strategies for cancer reduction through contaminant control (Red/Yellow/Green Design) and improved behavioral health through the use of light, color and nature to help reduce PTSD and suicide (Immersive Design). As industry leaders, we are dedicated to continually improving the design of the facilities in which our first responders live, work and train.
