Advanced Engineering in Firefighting Vehicles and Rescue Technologies
The fire fighting vehicle segment represents the pinnacle of the industry in terms of technological sophistication. The fire fighting and rescue vehicle market is evolving from simply a transport unit to an integrated life-saving platform. The projected increase in global fire fighting vehicle exports to $1.3 billion in 2024 is an indicator of increased public safety budgets worldwide. Product Diversity in Fire Fighting Equipment
The equipment that a modern fire brigade unit should have in its inventory is not limited to ladder trucks. Current trends in the sector highlight groups of vehicles, each specialized to respond to a specific type of fire:
Fire Tanker Trucks: These are vehicles with 4x4 or 6x6 drive systems and high water and foam capacity, used especially in forest fires and rural areas.
Airport Rescue Vehicles (ARFF): These are systems equipped with special monitors that can reach high speeds in a very short time and can respond to jet fuel fires.
Hydraulic Ladder and Telescopic Boom Vehicles: These are platforms with high maneuverability in narrow city streets and can reach different heights from 18 meters to 100 meters.
Search and Rescue Vehicles: These are mobile workshops used in natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods, containing hydraulic cutters, thermal cameras, and generators.
