Our Mission:
High Temperature Linings’ mission is to create a safe
and realistic fire training environment while
maintaining the structural integrity of the burn
building, and the safety of trainees and fire training
personnel. We are dedicated to providing information,
assistance, and education to any fire department wanting
to improve the quality of their training program.
Our company:
High Temperature Linings was
founded in Europe in the late 1980s and established in
the US in 1993 when it joined forces with E.H. Glover
Inc. (est. 1949) of Fairfax,
Virginia. The company works with fire departments,
architects, and engineers in developing safe live fire
training structures. High Temperature Linings®
manufactures the most durable thermal lining system
available for installation into live fire training
structures (burn buildings). HTL’s projects extend
throughout the USA, Canada, and Europe.

Our lining, System 203, protects structures from the horrendous environments associated with progressive live fire training and is rapidly becoming the "standard" in structural protection of major fire academies in the United States and around the world. In addition to manufacturing and installing System 203, HTL provides pre-construction design and budgeting services to assist fire departments in obtaining funding packages for renovations or new buildings.
Other services provided by HTL include structural surveys of existing structures to assess structural security. Once a structure's condition is determined, informed decisions can be made regarding funding for repairs and/or renovations. HTL also designs and installs temperature monitoring systems (TMS) that enable divisions to preserve the safety of their training environments and students.

The extreme conditions associated with live fire
training can detrimentally harm a training structure.
