A-EX and Protecfire Shine at Asturforesta, Spain

A Magical Setting in the Heart of Asturias

A-EX, the official distributor of Protecfire in Spain, proudly participated in Asturforesta, one of Spain’s most important forestry equipment trade shows. The event took place deep in the stunning forests of Asturias — a landscape so enchanting it could have been lifted from a Disney film. Surrounded by towering trees and nature in its purest form, the fair provided the perfect backdrop for showcasing cutting-edge technology for the forestry industry.

Live Demonstration of Detexline in Action

As part of our exhibit, we featured a live demonstration of the Detexline fire suppression system. The system was fully installed on a wood chipper, which was actively processing wood throughout the event. This hands-on display allowed visitors to see exactly how the system is integrated and functions under real working conditions — a key factor in demonstrating its reliability and performance.

Strong Interest in Large Machinery

One of the main highlights of the event was the high level of interest from visitors in large-scale forestry machinery, particularly log loaders and heavy-duty shredders. These machines are not only valuable assets but also particularly vulnerable to fire risks due to constant friction, hydraulic systems, and heat exposure. The detexline system offers a critical layer of protection, making it especially attractive to operators of these types of equipment.

Why detexline? Reliable, Low-Maintenance, and Eco-Friendly

Die detexline Feuerlöschanlage is uniquely suited for the harsh environments of forestry operations. Its key benefits include:

• Wartungsarm: No pressurized containers or electronics, significantly reducing upkeep needs.

• Exceptional robustness: Built to withstand vibrations, dirt, and extreme temperatures.

• Eco-friendly agent: Uses a non-toxic, biodegradable extinguishing fluid that’s safe for both operators and the environment.

These features make detexline an ideal solution for forestry machinery, where reliability and sustainability are paramount.

Successful Partnerships and New Opportunities

Asturforesta proved to be a major success for A-EX and Protecfire. Beyond the enthusiastic reception of our technology, the event led to new partnerships with equipment manufacturers and brand representatives, opening up exciting possibilities for future collaboration and market expansion.
