Newmax Trident Group

Our Story

Nic Newbury founded Newmax Security Ltd, building a reputation for delivering cutting-edge fire and security solutions across the UK. Meanwhile, Steve Clemson and Christian Wadham Powell established Trident Property Protection, specialising in perimeter security, automated gates and physical property protection across London and the Southeast.

After working together for several years and recognising the strength of their complementary skills, they made the decision to join forces — combining their expertise under one roof to create Newmax Trident Group.

The result is a unified team that delivers integrated fire safety, electronic security and physical property protection — from a single point of contact, with over 70 years of combined experience.
