Press release dated: May 28, 2026
TACBAG is an innovative hose management system. The patented technology of TACBAG revolutionizes the approach to firefighting operations and saves life-critical time. It enables faster intervention and sustainable damage minimization, and ensures greater safety for emergency personnel and those affected.
TACBAG is a brand of STOLZ Aufrolltechnik GmbH, a dynamic company and specialist in Germany for the development, design, and production of intelligent roll-up technology. As an experienced manufacturer, we stand for high manufacturing depth, reliable processes, and the highest quality “Made in Germany”.
TACBAG will present the latest developments at INTERSCHUTZ in Hannover from June 1 to 6, 2026 – Hall 26, Stand L11.
TACBAG – the innovative hose management system.
TACBAG is an innovative hose management system that is immediately ready for deployment after connection and enables rapid intervention. The system is available in three product lines.
Due to its compact size, the TACBAG 26 – Basic is particularly handy and can be deployed in interior attacks, for safety teams, or on aerial rescue vehicles with a weight of 22.5 kilograms and a hose length of 26 meters.
The TACBAG 21 – Allrounder has a line length of 31 meters and weighs 25 kilograms, achieving the same penetration depth as two C-lines. Furthermore, the TACBAG 26 – Allrounder can be attached to the aerial rescue vehicle in seconds, serves advancing teams during rapid rescue operations in interior attacks, or can be deployed directly from the vehicle.
The TACBAG 36 – Industry was specifically designed for facilities with longer fire compartments. Due to its larger design, a weight of 27.5 kilograms, and an attack line of 36 m, it is particularly intended for operations in industrial facilities or for ship and/or aircraft firefighting.
All three lines are compatible with the additional applications manufactured by STOLZ: the DLK bracket and the roll-up box with integrated roll-up system.
The vehicle bracket with integrated roll-up system and load extraction enables safe transport of the TACBAG in the emergency vehicle. The TACBAG can remain in the vehicle as a device for rapid water delivery, and the required hose line can be pulled out. After deployment, the TACBAG is rolled up using a hand crank without having to open the bag.
If the TACBAG is used in other scenarios, such as on the aerial rescue vehicle or in interior attacks, it can be easily removed from the roll-up box using the integrated load extraction.
Another option is the DLK bracket – a support plate for TACBAG that can be attached to the multifunction mount on the rescue basket. A roll-off and roll-up system is integrated into the support plate. The hose line can be pulled from the TACBAG, which is stored on the support plate, and then rewound using the hand crank, enabling rapid and safe deployment from the rescue basket without hose entanglement.
TACBAG – setting new standards in fire protection.
TACBAG saves life-critical time. This means greater safety for emergency personnel and better chances for rescue operations. Independent tests have shown – emergency personnel are over 60 percent faster than with conventional hose management.
TACBAG saves valuable energy. This means more safety reserves for advancing teams and further increases the chances for rescue operations. Tests demonstrate an energy savings of nearly 60 percent.
TACBAG saves air. Through faster and easier advancement, breathing air consumption was reduced by over 50% in comparison – an unbeatable argument for every decision-maker.
The decisive innovation leap of the TACBAG system lies in the fact that the hose reserve is carried by the advancing team and unrolls automatically during advancement. This reliably prevents both snagging of the hose line and the resulting hose chaos. Furthermore, TACBAG enables – uniquely due to the system – an orderly retreat along the hose.
