What Is It?

The GENFO Wildland Backpack System is a collapsible, manually operated backpack fire pump designed for initial attack and mop‑up operations in wildland and brush firefighting environments. Its compact, flexible design allows the unit to be easily stored and deployed while delivering controlled water application where hose lines and apparatus access are limited.

How Is It Used?

The backpack system is worn using integrated straps and operated via a hand‑powered, double‑action pump. Water is delivered through an adjustable tip that can be set to a straight stream or spray pattern, allowing firefighters to address hotspots, spot fires, and smoldering vegetation efficiently. When empty, the pack collapses to reduce storage space and improve transport convenience.
