Zero Compromise and Absolute Readiness
Rosenbauer’s line of Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) vehicles are ARFF by category, but uncategorical by any other measure. They are the optimal integration of chassis, bodywork and firefighting equipment, designed for the utmost safety and dependability.
Trust in equipment is paramount, which is why our ARFF vehicles are rigorously tested under the most extreme conditions and in the most adverse environments. Your crew can rest assured that, behind the wheel of a Rosenbauer ARFF vehicle, they’ll get the job done and get home safely.
We’re proud to build our multi-award winning PANTHER apparatus here in the United States. These apparatus are protecting airports and critical facilities across North America.
