Equipped with water, foam, dcp & co2, it can be used to efficiently bring all types of fires under control.

An early device used to squirt water onto a fire was known as a squirt or fire syringe. Hand squirts and hand pumps were invented around the 2nd century B.C. The fire pump was reinvented in Europe during the 16th century, reportedly used in Augsburg in 1518 and Nuremberg in 1657. A book of 1655 inventions mentions a steam engine (called a fire engine) pump used to "raise a column of water 40 feet, but there was no mention of whether it was portable. The earliest engines were small and were either carried by four men, or mounted on skids and dragged to a fire. As the engines grew larger they became horse-drawn and later, self-propelled by steam engines. Until the mid-19th century, most fire engines were maneuvered by men, but the introduction of horse-drawn fire engines considerably improved the response time to incidents. The first self-propelled steam-driven fire engine was built in New York in 1841. Motorized fire engines did not become commonplace until the early 20th century. By 1905, the idea of combining gas engine motor trucks into fire engines was attracting great attention. For many years firefighters sat on the sides of the fire engines, or even stood on the rear of the vehicles, exposed to the elements. This arrangement was uncomfortable and dangerous (some firefighters were thrown to their deaths when their fire engines made sharp turns on the road), and today nearly all fire engines have fully enclosed seating areas for their crews.

Hydraulic rescue tools are used by emergency rescue personnel to assist vehicle extrication of crash victims, as well as other rescues from small spaces. These tools include cutters, spreaders, and rams. Hydraulic rescue tools are powered by a hydraulic pump, which can be hand, foot, or engine-powered or even built into the tool. These tools may be either single-acting, where hydraulic pressure will only move the cylinder in one direction, or dual-acting, in which hydraulic pressure is used to both open and close the hydraulic cylinder. Previously rescuers often used circular saws for vehicle extrication, but these suffered from several drawbacks. Saws can conduct sparks, which could start a fire, create loud sounds, stress the victim, and often cut slowly. Alternatively, rescuers could try to pry open the vehicle doors with a crowbar, which, at times, could compromise the stability of the vehicle, injure the victims further, or inadvertently trigger the airbags of the vehicle.

In comparison, hydraulic spreader-cutters are quieter, faster, stronger, and more versatile: they can cut, open, and even lift a vehicle. Nowadays, these hydraulic tools are not only used for vehicle crash rescues. These tools have the capacity to rescue victims trapped inside buildings devastated by fire or earthquake. Combinations of these tools are also used for Airplane crash rescue. RESQTEC is one of the oldest companies engaged in designing hydraulic rescue tools. Garrison is proud to be formally tied up with RESQTEC to cater to the growing needs of Hydraulic Rescue Equipments in the Indian market.
