I would say;
1 Alarm System Installers/Fitters (no s on the end of system)
2 The predominant guests were Alarm System Installers. It is worth noting that recognition of the company's trademark is growing rapidly.

1. I would prefer "Alarm systems fitters"
2. I would prefer : Alarm systems installers were predominant among the guests. It’s worth noting that recognition of the company's trademark is growing very rapidly.

1. Either phrase is fine and has the same meaning.

2. The first sentence in this bit implies to me that the alarm systems installers were quite aggressive and were trying to take over the rest of the guests.

I think what you mean is that there were more alarm systems installers there than any other type of guest, in which case this sentence might be better:

The guests were predominantly alarm system installers.

This uses the same words but placed in a different order, it makes for a better meaning.

1. Doesn't matter. Installer and fitter are synonimous.
2. Predominate is not often used as an active verb.... So if you must use it, the better way would be 'Alarm systems installers were predominant among the guests.' I would then replace 'taking notice' with merely 'noting'. But hell, it's a dull piece of writing....

the alarm system installers/fitters predominated the guests. It is worth noting that the company's trademark recognition is growing rapidly.

I hate the imported US office/commercial/marketing speak which started in the 1980s. Why can't the sentence just read:

The majority of guests were alarm fitters, which was proof that the company's trademark was quickly becoming recognised in the trade.

The Additional 's' you put in the first one sounds a bit redundant.

"Alarm system installers" would work just as well.

"Alarm systems installers" sounds better.

If you were to take the words that you currently have and replace them with some totally unrelated words,and made them intersting,you might have something to work with.
