Research & Development

We are an excellent partner for our customers when it comes to individually tailored truck body solutions in order to keep hazards for people, environment and goods as low as possible.

We offer products and solutions which are far more than just the sum of their individual components. Our pioneering spirit is evident in every product. In close cooperation with customers, we develop a technically optimised and comprehensively considered solution for each application, according to the requirements. For: Developing together is more efficient and reliable than working alone. Starting with proven, fully developed basic components, we create EMPL vehicle bodies which clearly differ from those from large-scale production.
Quality, functionality, durability and design are our top priorities.


Fire fighting vehicle generation: PRIMUS

  • optimised superstructure concept guarantees maximum operating convenience
  • arched superstructure reduces aerodynamic drag and optimises the field of view  
  • new, enormously robust panels serve as impact protection
  • special design significantly reduces soiling, optimises corrosion protection and acts as a visual highlight
  • greatly reduced body weight allows increased additional load
  • Use of industrial large series components ensures spare parts availability of over 30 years 
  • universal beacon adapter for all standard beacon light variants – integrated into the overall concept of the vehicle in an aesthetically pleasing way
  • new integrated branch deflector to protect the beacon system
  • “all-round LED lighting concept” for optimum illumination with minimum power consumption
  • maximum flexibility and very easy operation for pump operating stations: H.I.T. display control, analogue flow chart as per AGBF (Working Group of Managers of German Professional Fire Services)
