The SKUNK Fire Lance System is a modular extinguishing solution designed for controlled, high-efficiency fire suppression in complex and high-risk environments. Engineered for modern firefighting challenges, it enables operators to attack fire from a safe distance while maintaining precision and operational control.
The system integrates multiple specialised extinguishing heads, including solutions for structural fires, vehicle fires, electric vehicle battery cooling, and enclosed space suppression. Its modular extension design allows the lance to reach extended distances of up to approximately five metres, supporting intervention without direct exposure to heat, flames, or hazardous emissions. Particularly suited for electric vehicle incidents, the SKUNK system enables effective battery cooling while minimising firefighter exposure to toxic gases and thermal runaway risks. The design prioritises operational safety, adaptability, and ease of deployment in dynamic fireground conditions.
