With more than 160 years of experience in the development and manufacture of firefighting technology, Magirus looks back on a history steeped in tradition. The company is known both for its innovative strength and its tireless commitment to further development. As part of its highly acclaimed anniversary celebrations in 2024, Magirus presented its best product portfolio to date, which will now be made available to an international audience at Interschutz 2026.

“Interschutz is the most important international trade fair”

“Interschutz is the most important international trade fair for presenting our latest solutions to a global audience. We are delighted to showcase our developments in the field of turntable ladders, fire engines, and other innovative technologies to experts and fire departments from around the world,” says Thomas Hilse, CEO of Magirus.

“Last year, we reached an important milestone with our 160th anniversary – and at Interschutz 2026, we will continue to combine our tradition and experience with forward-looking developments and innovations. Especially after the difficult Corona years, Interschutz has our full support and, as a global company, we are particularly pleased to be back.”

In dialogue with the industry

Under the motto “Safeguarding tomorrow,” Interschutz 2026 will focus on the future topics of climate change, civil protection, sustainability, and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI).

The first Interschutz after the pandemic in June 2022 attracted more than 1,300 exhibitors and around 80,000 visitors from more than 60 countries. Magirus sees Interschutz as a unique opportunity to engage in dialogue with leading international companies and experts in the industry in order to further advance new developments in the field of firefighting and rescue technology.

Focus on sustainability and the use of new technologies

“We are proud to be part of this important event, which is dedicated to the challenges of the future. The topics of sustainability and the use of new technologies are also of central importance to us at Magirus, and we are convinced that our products and solutions will make a decisive contribution to protecting life and health,” Hilse continues.
