Mobile firefighting trailers strengthen fire protection in hazardous industrial areas
INDUSTRIAL facilities such as petrochemical plants, refineries and tank farms face significant fire risks that demand rapid emergency response. FireDos firefighting trailers provide a mobile fire suppression solution for firefighting and cooling operations in hazardous areas, offering flexible deployment where fixed fire protection systems may be unavailable, inaccessible or require additional support.
DoseTech Fire, the FireDos partner for Southern Africa, pioneered the first firefighting trailer of its kind in South Africa for a petrochemical industry client. Designed for firefighting with water and foam, these mobile firefighting units provide an effective supplement to stationary fire protection systems. They help facilities strengthen emergency response capabilities while significantly reducing personnel within the risk zone, thereby enhancing safety during firefighting and cooling operations.
FireDos firefighting trailers: Robust and reliable
The FireDos fire suppression trailers are characterised not only by their flexibility and performance, but also by their robustness and reliability. Manufactured from high-quality materials, the trailers are designed to withstand the most demanding operating conditions over the long term. They can be rapidly deployed and are simple to operate.
These mobile extinguishing systems can be customised to meet specific application requirements. Depending on the risk scenario, the trailers can be equipped with a FireDos firefighting monitor, a FireDos foam proportioning system or a combination of both devices, as well as a foam agent tank.
Fire trailer with FireDos monitor: Equipped with a powerful FireDos monitor to enable precise and targeted firefighting, these trailers are particularly suitable for fighting fires in areas that are difficult to access or for cooling objects from a safe distance. When equipped with a 24-volt power supply and radio remote control for operating the monitor from a distance, they provide additional safety for personnel.
Fire trailer with FireDos foam proportioner: Fire suppression trailers equipped with a FireDos proportioning system offer the option of mixing water with foam agent to ensure effective firefighting. These systems are particularly efficient when fighting liquid fuels and offer improved extinguishing performance.
Fire trailer with FireDos proportioner, FireDos monitor and foam agent tank: This trailer combines the functions of monitors and proportioning systems and has an additional foam agent tank. It offers maximum flexibility and performance and is ideal for complex firefighting scenarios.

Mobile firefighting systems: Critical in petrochemical facilities
Fire protection remains a major challenge in chemical and petrochemical facilities where highly flammable substances are processed and stored. DoseTech Fire notes that petrochemical plants are increasingly making use of mobile extinguishing units because of their versatility and flexibility and as back up to fixed systems.
Supporting tank farm and industrial fire protection strategies
In industrial plants, fire extinguishing trailers are used to fight fires and protect critical facilities and buildings. They offer a fast and efficient means of suppressing fires and preventing major damage.
In tank farms, they are often used to combat tank fires and to cool neighbouring tanks. Their mobility and versatility ensure a quick and effective response to different types of fires.
Skid units and roll-off containers for specialised applications
In addition to firefighting trailers, DoseTech Fire supplies other portable firefighting solutions, including firefighting skid units and water/foam roll-off containers.
Every area in every industry faces specific fire protection requirements. For this reason, DoseTech Fire offers FireDos solutions that are specially tailored to the needs of their customers and the extinguishing scenarios.
