OUR MAJOR FOCUS: INNOVATION

To deal with ever-changing fire risks and search and rescue missions, firefighting equipment must continue to develop and adapt to be increasingly efficient, whilst ensuring that firefighters are as safe as possible. To respond to these challenges, LEADER, a search and rescue equipment and firefighting equipment manufacturer, is strongly focused on innovation and new technologies, employing its own Research and Development team. This team develops and promotes future equipment to end users. To test equipment and assess performance, LEADER continues to invest in its own infrastructures:

• Water and high expansion foam (400 m²) test premises
• Ventilation (400 m²) test premises
• Test premises for victim search equipment
• Box fire testing area
• Fire extinguishing equipment testing area
