A Strong Showing Highlighting International Cooperation
Organized by the International Office of Deutsche Messe Japan and Tokyo Big Sight—Japan’s largest exhibition center and organizer of the renowned FIRE-SAFETY TOKYO—the pavilion showcases the country’s innovative strength. This forward-looking trade show presence is primarily coordinated by International Linkage LLC from Japan, which acts as a strategic bridge-builder and presents four leading Japanese co-exhibitors to the European market. The range of exhibits extends from high-tech robotics to eco-friendly fire extinguishing agents.
Efficient Conveying Technology and Emergency Water Treatment
Among the co-exhibitors, Shibaura Fire Pump Co., Ltd. stands out. Since introducing its first portable fire pump in 1950, the brand has been synonymous with reliability under extreme conditions. At INTERCHUTZ 2026, the company will present modern, portable fire pumps as well as mobile emergency water treatment systems. These systems are specifically designed to quickly and independently ensure a supply of clean drinking water in the event of natural disasters such as earthquakes or floods.
Drone-Based Aerial Firefighting
YAMADA Seisakusyo Co., Ltd. is showcasing a technological highlight in the field of technical support and civil protection. In addition to traditional firefighting equipment such as nozzles, hose couplings, and distribution manifolds, the company is demonstrating a state-of-the-art fire suppression system for drones. Equipped with the specialized components “Nozu-Lun” and “Kuru-Lin,” this development enables targeted aerial firefighting. It offers emergency responders the ability to effectively combat hard-to-reach fires—such as those in industrial facilities or on upper floors—without putting people at direct risk.
Sustainable, Soap-Based Wildfire Protection
Shabondama Soap Co., Ltd. is leading the way in ecological innovation within the firefighting industry—this long-established company is bringing Japan’s first domestically produced Class A foam fire suppressant to Hannover. Particularly noteworthy is that the extinguishing agent is based on a soap formula that is entirely free of additives, making it 100 percent biodegradable and completely harmless to humans and nature. Thanks to its excellent wetting properties, it is said to be ideal for fighting large-scale forest and vegetation fires, as it penetrates deep into the wood while protecting the environment.
Personal protective equipment for extreme conditions
The portfolio is rounded out by FUJI GLOVE CO., LTD., a specialist in personal protective equipment. Professional firefighting and rescue gloves will be on display. Models such as the “KC-225” meet Japan’s strict firefighting guidelines, feature a fully bonded aramid lining, and offer maximum grip and protection. In this context, Fuji Glove emphasizes its flexibility in customizing gloves precisely to regional tender criteria and European standards.
