The fire safety landscape in Saudi Arabia has taken a significant step forward with the addition of a cutting-edge dry powder fire truck to the fire brigade fleet. This state-of-the-art vehicle, designed to combat specialized fire hazards, reflects the country’s commitment to enhancing emergency response capabilities in industrial and high-risk areas.
The dry powder fire truck produced by CSCTRUCK Fire Rescue Truck is equipped with advanced fire suppression systems tailored to handle Class D fires, which involve combustible metals such as magnesium, sodium, and aluminum. These types of fires are particularly common in industrial zones, petrochemical plants, and manufacturing facilities—key sectors in Saudi Arabia‘s growing economy.
This new addition boasts a robust powder delivery system capable of dispersing high-performance extinguishing agents with precision. With a capacity of over 3,000 kilograms of dry powder and a discharge range exceeding 20 meters, the truck can quickly neutralize challenging fires that water or foam systems cannot address effectively.
The vehicle is also fitted with modern features, including advanced telemetry for remote monitoring, automated extinguishing controls, and thermal imaging cameras to detect hotspots in challenging conditions. The deployment of this truck ensures enhanced safety for both firefighters and the infrastructure they protect.
Saudi Arabia‘s decision to expand its fleet aligns with its broader Vision 2030 objectives, focusing on improving safety standards and supporting industrial development. The inclusion of the dry powder fire truck is part of a broader initiative to modernize emergency services across the country.
Local officials have expressed confidence that the new addition will significantly bolster their ability to respond to fire incidents in specialized environments, ensuring rapid containment and reducing potential damages. The truck’s introduction symbolizes Saudi Arabia’s proactive approach to safeguarding its critical infrastructure and workforce.
