In 1994, the engineer Frans Steur founded IFEX GmbH for the release of his new pacesetting impulse fire extinguishing technology. At the Interschutz trade fair in Hanover, Germany he presented his 1 liter impulse gun with its supply units. The response was overwhelming. In the following years, Steur and his team developed the Dual Intruder twin cannons and the mighty Dominator 30 liter cannon and constructed highly versatile applications enabling IFEX technology to be mounted on automobiles, helicopters, tanks, tractors, trains and trucks.


Today, more than 10,000 fire fighters worldwide are working with IFEX systems. They protect Tokyo, Japan's 27 million metropolis, and a historic stave church in Norway; Ukrainian nuclear power plants in the Crimea and the ports of Sydney; US military bases and the Gotthard tunnel in Switzerland; Arabian oil wells, Daimler Chrysler automotive plants and the rain forests of Mato Grosso.

The impulse technology itself is protected by approximately 100 patents worldwide. It has been tested by governmental bodies and private institutions and has proven its functionality, durability and versatility in countless fires over the last 5 years.

All IFEX impulse tools - from the half liter handheld gun to the 30 liter stationary cannons - are manufactured and assembled in Germany.

The IFEX company is certified by ISO 9001 and approved by the German TÜV and DIN.
