Vegetation fires

Drive the flank, don’t walk it.

Vegetation fires have become standard incidents. Our equipment uses water sparingly, stays mobile and moves with the fire flank; from the wet line, laid from the moving vehicle with the retrofit spray bar, to the stationary holding line.

How it unfolds

Four tasks, one sequence.

This page follows the chronology of a vegetation fire incident: first wet down the land, then hold the lines, keep the water coming, and finish with the mop-up. Jump straight to the task you want to equip.

Lay wet line

The first task is not the fire but the land ahead of it: pre-wet before the fire flank arrives. The SnakE® spray bar lays the wet line from the moving vehicle, mounted even on a TSF-W, and uses water sparingly because the water goes precisely into the vegetation. Your crew stays on the vehicle, and the line moves with the incident.

Holding line

Where buildings, the wildland-urban interface or farmsteads lie in the fire’s path, you need a protective line that holds without tying up personnel: the stationary holding line. SnakE® rotary sprinklers keep the threatened protective line wet. As a set for structure protection or individually on a tree. Set up, connect, and your crews are free for manual firefighting.

Resupply water

In rough terrain, the deciding factor is not the pump but the resupply. The Kamel® folding tank buffers the water shuttle where there is no hydrant. The Twin wye sits in the B (75 mm) line and keeps the area wet with two sprinklers, while the Euro wildfire wye feeds three D (25 mm) nozzles from the C (52 mm) line. The Safeforest carrying basket carries hoses and fittings, ready to deploy, where no vehicle can go.

Mop-up & crew

A vegetation fire is only over when the ground is cold. With the Pulaski Euro Ax you cut control lines and open up hot spots for mop-up; the 100% biodegradable Retardant Euro-FC boosts the water when fighting wildfires. And because such incidents take hours, crew care belongs in the vegetation fire plan too.

How procurement works

  1. Send an inquiry

    Tell us which of the four tasks your fire department wants to cover, by form, phone or email.

  2. Receive a formal quote

    Valid for 30 days as a rule: use it to get the procurement into the budget or to prepare the tender.

  3. Delivery in 5 to 10 workdays

    Shipping by DHL, DPD or freight carrier. Purchase on account and XRechnung for public authorities and emergency services.

What procurement wants to know first

Can fire departments and municipalities purchase on account?

Yes. Public authorities, fire departments and emergency services can purchase on account, and billing via XRechnung is available too. Order directly through the shop or request a quote by email: the invoice goes to your administrative office.

How fast is delivery?

The delivery time is 10 to 20 working days. Depending on scope, shipping is by DHL, DPD or freight carrier. A 14-day return policy applies.

We already have a SnakE® system. Is the spray bar alone enough?

Yes; the SnakE® Wildfire Spray Bar is made for exactly that: the upgrade for an existing SnakE® system. You get the bar on its own and choose the nozzles separately. Without an existing system, take the ready-to-deploy spray bar set or combine SnakE® 4 and the bar. And if your fire department wants to cover the wet line and a stationary holding line together, the wildfire set with rotary sprinkler is the right expansion: we are happy to clarify in a consultation which level makes sense.

What happens once you inquire?

You get a formal quote with a validity date, 30 days as a rule, which lets you register the procurement in the budget or prepare the tender. After ordering, the delivery time is 10 to 20 working days; depending on scope, shipping is by DHL, DPD or freight carrier. A 14-day return policy applies.

Read the background Collapse background

Forest, heath, and grassland fires are no longer a summer exception. Long dry periods, heavy fuel loads in cultivated landscapes, and rough terrain have made vegetation fires a standard scenario. To intervene effectively, you need equipment that conserves water, stays mobile, and can move with the fire flank.

In this collection you will find equipment for professional vegetation firefighting: spray bars and vehicle-mounted extinguishing systems (including the SnakE spray bar) for laying wetlines from a moving vehicle, rotary sprinklers for stationary defensive lines along threatened sectors, the Euro wildfire manifold for rugged D-nozzle supply in the terrain, and suitable extinguishing agents.
