Flipkart

Flipkart is developing one of its largest fulfillment centers in Patli Hajipur, Gurugram district, Haryana, designed to support high-volume e-commerce operations and rapid order fulfillment. Spread across approximately 140 acres with a covered area of nearly 3 million square feet, the facility is expected to be among the largest logistics hubs in Asia. Given the scale of operations, high inventory density, and continuous movement of goods and personnel, a robust and highly reliable fire protection system is a critical requirement for the facility.

The fire-fighting pumping infrastructure is designed to deliver immediate response, consistent pressure, and uninterrupted water supply across large warehouse zones, storage aisles, material handling areas, and ancillary facilities. The system supports stringent safety norms required for large logistics and warehousing environments while ensuring operational continuity and asset protection.

Split case fire pumps are widely used in large industrial and logistics facilities due to their ability to deliver high flow rates at stable pressure, making them ideal for protecting expansive warehouse spaces. Their double-suction design minimizes axial thrust, ensures smooth hydraulic performance, and allows easy inspection and maintenance without disturbing connected pipework. This is particularly advantageous in large fulfilment centers where system reliability and service accessibility are critical.

Vertical inline fire pumps complement the system by offering a compact footprint and efficient pressure boosting within constrained mechanical spaces. Their in-line configuration reduces installation complexity while maintaining high efficiency and dependable operation. Together, the combination of split case and vertical inline pumps ensures uniform pressure distribution across long piping networks and multiple fire zones throughout the facility.
