Fires in vehicles pose a significant threat to life and property. In response to the pressing need for international dialogue SP is organising a new conference: FIVE (Fires in Vehicles). The objective of this conference is to exchange knowledge of fires in vehicles, including both road and rail vehicles.

In recognition of the fact that many of the fire problems faced by these vehicles are the same, the solutions to them can also be similar.

FIVE will be a biannual event, the first conference of which will take place September 29 – 30, 2010 in Gothenburg, SWEDEN.

We are glad to introduce you to our Keynote Speakers and their presentations:

“The Hanover bus fire and activities on improving fire safety in buses”
Richard Damm, Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Development, Germany

“Fire department’s operations at large incidents involving vehicles”
Reinhard Ries, Frankfurt am Main Fire and Rescue Services, Germany
