There is no time to question if the equipment will hold when the alarm goes off. For forty years, LEADER GROUP has built its company on earning the trust of firefighters and rescuers who entrust it with their lives.

Since its founding in 1986, the business has expanded from a specialist manufacturer to a global conglomerate of about ten complementing businesses, employing over 400 people and serving clients in more than 130 nations.

Foam concentrates, portable pumps, hoses and couplings, nozzles and monitors, ventilation, thermal imaging, victim search, training equipment and diphasic systems are just a few of the specialties that each LEADER GROUP organization offers. The way these talents work together is what makes the Group unique. On the fireground, all of these goods are used side by side by the same teams for the same tasks.

Fire departments can equip themselves with everything from the pump to the nozzle, from the hose to the foam, from firefighting to search and rescue, thanks to a single reliable partner who recognizes and supports their operational demands. This is the strength of a diverse team.

Through consistent organic development and strategic acquisitions, such as ZELUP in France and CET Fire Pumps in Canada, LEADER GROUP has doubled its business since 2021. The group most recently welcomed Mercedes Textiles in June 2026.

Every action has improved the Group's capabilities, broadening its product line, increasing its reach, and bringing it closer to clients, especially in North America where extreme weather and wildfires strain fire services.

With reputable brands like LEADER, BIOEX, TEMPEST, ZELUP, CET Fire Pumps and Mercedes Textiles, fire and rescue professionals worldwide depend on LEADER GROUP equipment to help protect their communities.

Rather than relying solely on its prior achievements, LEADER GROUP views 40 years as a gage of its progress and a springboard for future developments, including more innovation, global influence and an even wider array of solutions for individuals who flee peril.

The Group's businesses continue to be dedicated to a common goal as it looks to the future: creating cutting-edge solutions that save and protect lives.
