Fire Fighting Frame Tanks & Fire Suppression
One of the most common uses for the folding water tank is for areas and applications that require quick setup times and easy transportation. Due to their easily collapsible frame, these tanks are folded and moved via fire truck to forests and other locations where water is limited. Once on site, these tanks can be easily carried and deployed in a matter of minutes. This allows them to be quickly filled by helicopter, water bowser, or fire truck.
