DAFO - Detection and extinction of vehicle fires

Leader in fire fighting systems for over 100 years

Vehicle fire protection solutions for high-risk industries since 1976

DAFO VEHICLE FIRE PROTECTION is at the forefront of heavy vehicle fire protection technology.

Founded in 1919 by Nils Forssberg and John Danielson in Sweden as Danielson Forssberg & Co., the company first marketed portable fire extinguishers under the trade name Pyrene.

In the mid-1970s, it decided to become a wholesaler with a full range of fire protection products and changed its name to DAFO, short for DAnielson and FOrssberg.

DAFO was one of the first companies in the world to start developing integrated fire fighting solutions for vehicles in 1976. This was due to demand from the insurance industry for forest machines to be equipped with fire extinguishing systems to obtain appropriate insurance.
