Fire extinguisher boat developed – Rosenbauer also fights forest fires on the water

Date:

Climate change also requires a firefighter from Leonding in Upper Austria, who has now developed a fire-fighting boat with Palfinger for the first time.

Toledo, about an hour’s drive south of Madrid: The city in Spain is becoming the epitome of the current forest fires in southern Europe. Evacuations and destruction – these dramatic images also reinforce Rosenbauer’s commitment to fighting wildfires. When boss Dieter Siegel waved him off in the spring of 2020 and meant that the fire service he directed was not a specialist in this area, the Leonding-based company went on the attack here.

Developed with Palfinger
In addition to a transportable system for fire-fighting water tanks, with which transport aircraft can be quickly converted, Rosenbauer will be presenting a fire-fighting boat developed together with Palfinger at the Interschutz in Hanover. “Forest and wildfires will require multinational efforts,” emphasizes Head of Sales Andreas Zeller. By 2030, Rosenbauer wants to increase its annual turnover to two billion euros.
