Biography

James E Golinveaux
Senior Vice president, Research & Development.

Mr. Golinveaux’s areas of interest include the research, design and applications of automatic fire sprinklers as well as their history. His interest in the fire sprinkler industry was sparked by his father’s 27 years in the fire service. Beginning as a designer in the early 1980’s and later as a design manager for a fire protection Firm in California, he applied local and national standards to develop working drawings for automatic fire sprinkler systems. Mr.Golinveaux became active and continues his involvement today through his membership on numerous committees such as the National Fire Protection Association (Member of NFPA 13 Discharge & Installation), International Conference of Building Officials, Society of Fire Protection Engineers and Southern Building Code Congress International. By 1991, Mr. Golinveaux’s strong application knowledge of the automatic fire sprinkler industry afforded him the opportunity to work on the East Coast as the Director of Technical Services for Central Sprinkler Company. Mr. Golinveaux was responsible for the technical responses to worldwide production of automatic fire sprinkler system components. He continued his involvement in the industry and represented Central on many national committees including the National Fire Protection Research Foundation, Research and Advisory Council on Fire Suppression Futures and Underwriters Laboratories Industry Advisory Committee for automatic sprinklers.

Mr. Golinveaux’s many talents and wealth of knowledge were recognized by Central where he was Senior Vice President of Engineering and was directly responsible for the Production Plant with over 600 employees, the Engineering/R & D, Quality Control and Technical Services operations. Currently, Mr. Golinveaux is Senior Vice President of Research and Development for Tyco ire & Building Products, which represents Central, Gem and Star branded products.In addition to the support of the industry through his numerous committee memberships, Mr.Golinveaux also contributes his time as a speaker for national education seminars sponsored by organizations such as the Society of Fire Protection Engineers, Universities, Highly Protected Risk (HPR) Insurance Companies, National Apprenticeship and Training, and Trade Associations as well as state and local fire authorities.
