The acquisition fully integrates container fire-fighting innovation into VIKING’s one stop portfolio of maritime safety solutions
Press Release – VIKING Life-Saving Equipment has acquired HydroPen, the company behind the unique HydroPen
TM container firefighting solution supplied to hundreds of ships.
HydroPens rapid uptake has been due to its combination of innovation, efficiency and ease of use. Attached to a ship’s hose and raised on a telescopic arm by a single crew member, water pressure alone powers its ‘drill and spray’ nozzle to penetrate a container door before switching to spray mode to extinguish a fire with water, foam or CO2 – directly at its source.
