Germany / Sweden – After its acquisition by USA-based United Safety & Survivability Corporation* (USSC) late last year, vehicle fire suppression systems specialist, Dafo Vehicle Fire Protection AB of Tyresö, Sweden, was out in full force at the 2025 UITP Global Public Transport Summit in Hamburg (June 15 – 18). We spoke to representatives from the company who told us that the factory in Katrineholm had been relocated to its HQ in Stockholm, signifying an organisational restructuring. The company also showed us a next-generation CO2 sensor in its vehicle fire suppression system.
No signs of any rebranding or further organisational restructuring at this stage, as the company reaffirmed its role as a leading fire‑safety specialist for commercial vehicles.
