Type 1 Hose Uses

A type 1 fire hose is widely used by the firefighting industry to tackle a range of fire intensities in a variety of settings and industries. This hose type is one of the most popular choices for firefighters due to its durability and synthetic material characteristics. Some of the most common environments where a type 1 hose is used can be found below:

Marine applications: Type 1 hoses are used on ships and ports to aid with fire protection. They are an important part of the ship's safety equipment as they are used to control any intense fires that may start on board.

Industrial firefighting: In industrial settings, type 1 hoses are often purchased and required for fire protection and emergency response within large warehouses and buildings. They are commonly found in buildings such as manufacturing plants and chemical labs where fires are much more common.
