7 juli 2023 – The aid organization ‘Brandweer zonder Grenzen is currently collecting equipment, vehicles, and people for humanitarian aid in Ukraine. Amongother things, the Brabant-Zuidoost security region is donating a number of Hytrans mobile bulk water transport systems that can be used in the event of major fires and floods. As the manufacturer of these systems, we have made them fully operational again for this initiative. Brandweer zonder Grenzen has just collected the systems from us in Lemmer.

Erwin te Bokkel of Brandweer zonder Grenzen said: “In a few weeks’ time we will set off with a convoy heading to a hub in Poland. From there the equipment will be transported further to Ukraine. It is expected that the equipment will be used in the area where the dam broke earlier, but we cannot be completely sure. The situation in the war zone can change from day to day. Local firefighting colleagues will determine where the need is greatest. They are very pleased with the donation, as the need for reliable equipment is high, given its intensive use and the significant wear and tear it has to endure.”
