Talk To Us About Fire Safety

Early Detection System

Fire Rover’s Early Detection System combines thermal, flame, and smoke analytics to identify fire risks before they spread, enabling rapid response and protecting high-risk environments around the clock.

Continuous Suppression System

An automated, large-scale protection solution that detects, verifies, and suppresses fires in seconds — providing constant coverage for operations that can’t afford downtime.

Self-Contained Suppression System

A compact, all-in-one system designed for standalone fire protection, ideal for targeted coverage in smaller or remote areas without existing infrastructure.

OnWatch Mobile Detection System

A flexible, camera-based monitoring system that brings real-time thermal detection and human verification anywhere it’s needed — ideal for temporary sites or expanding operations.

Mobile Suppression Unit System

Fire Rover’s fully mobile suppression system combines advanced detection, onboard agent storage, and remote operation to deliver rapid response and protection wherever the risk is.

Landfills

Open air, shifting materials, and limited infrastructure make landfills especially vulnerable to incipient fires. Fire Rover provides rapid mobile detection with 24/7 thermal monitoring and video-verified alerting — delivering protection where permanent systems can’t reach.

Marine

Sparks, welding equipment, and combustible materials are common in shipyards and other marine situations. Our Mobile Suppression System quickly delivers high-volume suppression directly to the ignition source — all while keeping your crew at a safe distance.

Metal Processing

From hot loads to lithium battery ignitions, scrapyards face unpredictable fire risks. Our hybrid approach combines mobile detection, continuous suppression, and site-specific strategies to stay ahead of threats in even the harshest environments, whether indoors or outdoors.

Wood Processing

Dust, organic material, and high heat combine to make these facilities a fire hazard. Fire Rover’s integrated detection and suppression systems provide persistent monitoring and immediate suppression to prevent deep-seated fires in bulk storage or conveyor lines.

Smarter Landfill Fire Protection

Advanced Protection for
Complex Landfill Fire Risks

Combustible waste, lithium-ion batteries, and unpredictable ignition sources make landfills one of the most fire-prone environments anywhere. Fire Rover identifies ignition early — before smoke turns into flames — and provides high-volume suppression to stop fires from spreading. From open-air piles to transfer stations, our technologically-advanced solutions adapt to the toughest landfill conditions.

1

Lithium-Ion
Batteries

Discarded lithium-ion batteries are a leading cause of landfill fires. Their unpredictable thermal runaway reactions can escalate instantly, requiring fast detection and targeted suppression.

2

Methane
Gas

Landfills naturally generate methane, creating highly flammable conditions that can turn a small ignition into a major incident without rapid response.

3

Subsurface
Fires

Deep-seated fires caused by decomposing waste are difficult to detect and nearly impossible to extinguish with traditional methods. Early detection is essential to containing them.

4

Hot
Loads

Smoldering or ignited loads from collection trucks can spark major fires as soon as they hit the pile. Thermal monitoring and immediate suppression stop these incidents before they spread.

5

Equipment
Fires

Heavy machinery like compactors and dozers face constant fire risk from hydraulic leaks, hot engines, or sparks — requiring reliable on-site protection to avoid downtime and damage.

6

Spontaneous
Combustion

Organic and flammable materials can self-heat and ignite without warning. Continuous monitoring catches these fires in their earliest stages.

Outsmart Fire With Real-Time Response

Faster Detection,
Smarter Response

Fire Rover detects incipient fires before they escalate using thermal imaging, flame, and smoke analytics—then confirms threats through 24/7 live human monitoring to prevent false alarms and initiate real-time suppression.

Safer, Cleaner
Fire Protection

With remote-operated suppression, Fire Rover keeps your team out of harm’s way and reduces downtime after incidents. Our water-efficient technology uses up to 88% less water than traditional systems, minimizing mess, damage, and environmental impact.

Lower Risk,
Higher Confidence

Protect your people, assets, and reputation with a system designed to outpace fire threats and outsmart traditional suppression. Fewer disruptions, fewer claims, and complete peace of mind backed by innovation and FM Approval.

Over the past decade, I’ve seen firsthand how Fire Rover’s technology has evolved — but what’s never changed is our commitment to protecting people and property. Being part of that mission every day is what keeps me inspired.

Pre-Incipient Stage

Invisible to the eye — heat buildup begins before smoke or flame

Incipient Stage

The very first visible signs of fire — often seconds from spreading

Smoldering Stage

Smoke develops as materials heat; just 30 seconds from open flame

Flame Stage

Ignition is visible and spreading; suppression is now critical

Fire Stage

Active fire growth threatens equipment, property, and safety

Major Fire Incident

Uncontrolled fire requiring full emergency response

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are landfill fires so difficult to control?

Landfill fires are challenging because they can ignite deep below the surface, fueled by methane gas and decomposing waste. Traditional suppression methods often fail to reach the source, which is why continuous monitoring and rapid, targeted suppression are critical.

How can Fire Rover help prevent landfill fires before they start?

Fire Rover’s systems use thermal, flame, and smoke detection to spot early warning signs — often before visible flames appear. Human verification ensures every alert is accurate, and suppression is activated immediately to stop incidents from escalating.

What role do lithium-ion batteries play in landfill fires?

Discarded lithium-ion batteries are one of the fastest-growing causes of landfill fires. When damaged or crushed, they can enter thermal runaway and ignite surrounding waste. Fire Rover technology is specifically designed to identify and suppress these threats early.

Can Fire Rover systems handle subsurface fires?

While subsurface fires are extremely difficult to extinguish, Fire Rover can detect surface hotspots linked to underground activity. Early detection and suppression reduce the risk of these fires spreading and help operators take corrective action quickly.

How does Fire Rover protect landfill equipment and staff?

Heavy equipment, like compactors and dozers, is often a fire source. Fire Rover monitors working areas in real time, detecting heat or sparks near machinery and dispatching suppression instantly — protecting both assets and the safety of on-site teams.
