EmiControls and Magirus Expand Collaboration
Technology that emergency and rescue services can rely on, even under extreme conditions – this is the shared commitment of EmiControls and Magirus. In industrial and vegetation fires, as well as tunnel operations, effective smoke and pollutant suppression is a critical factor for the safety of both responders and those affected.
To meet these demanding requirements with powerful and reliable system solutions, EmiControls has successfully partnered for over a decade with Magirus GmbH of Ulm, Germany. A highlight of this long-standing partnership is the AirCore TAF: a multifunctional robot based on cutting-edge water mist technology.
This proven partnership is now being strategically advanced and expanded: both companies have signed a new cooperation agreement with a minimum term of three years, reaffirming their commitment to a long-term collaboration.
A Partnership on a Growth Path: Clear Goals, Defined Markets
EmiControls and Magirus have set ambitious targets for their future cooperation: within the next three years, they aim to quadruple their joint sales volumes. To achieve this, the companies will leverage their respective strengths – Magirus’ expertise in high-performance firefighting and rescue vehicles, and EmiControls’ innovative water mist and turbine technologies.
Another key element of the expanded partnership is a regional division of markets, enabling focused market development and clear responsibilities. This approach lays the foundation for scaling their solutions internationally with greater precision.
“Our collaboration with Magirus has proven extremely successful over many years. With this new agreement, we aim to significantly scale our solutions internationally,” says Martin Eppacher, CEO of EmiControls. The long-term nature of the partnership provides the planning security needed to drive investments, market development, and product integration. Both companies share the goal of sustainably developing their cooperation beyond the current term.
Clear Structures for Sustainable Growth, Quality and Reliability
As part of the renewed collaboration, EmiControls and Magirus are placing a strong emphasis on robust and transparent partnership structures. Clearly defined responsibilities, coordinated planning and decision-making processes, and closer operational and strategic integration will form the basis for securing growth, quality, and delivery reliability over the long term.
“We are not pursuing short-term gains, but consciously focusing on long-term, sustainable partnerships with clear goals and dependable structures,” stresses Fatmir Veselaj, CEO of Magirus. “Our collaboration with EmiControls is a cornerstone of our system strategy. Together, we aim to achieve significant growth while ensuring the highest standards of quality and reliability.”
Integrated System Solutions for the Most Demanding Operations
The intensified cooperation between EmiControls and Magirus is designed to provide emergency crews worldwide with integrated, high-performance systems for complex operational scenarios. Combining vehicle technology and robotics with innovative extinguishing solutions based on water mist and turbine technology delivers a decisive advantage in major incidents, wildland fires, industrial emergencies, and tunnel operations – enhancing safety for both responders and affected individuals.
Both companies see this partnership as a logical step towards pooling their expertise and jointly developing solutions to protect communities. In doing so, EmiControls and Magirus reaffirm their commitment to supporting emergency crews with modern, reliable technology and integrated system solutions of the highest quality.
