Indo Firex, Rescue & Disaster Expo & Forum is strengthening its focus on technological developments that support safer and more effective firefighting operations. Organised by PT Napindo Media Ashatama (Napindo), the exhibition connects industry
stakeholders with innovations and solutions across fire protection, rescue operations, disaster management, and occupational safety and health. Recent developments in Indonesia, including the deployment of robotic firefighting equipment by Jakarta’s Fire and Rescue Agency (Gulkarmat), highlight how technology is creating new possibilities for emergency response and safety.
In May 2026, Jakarta’s Fire and Rescue Agency (Gulkarmat) deployed the MRF-500 firefighting robot, equipped with cameras and toxic-gas sensors, to support operations in hazardous environments. The robot is designed to discharge water during firefighting operations and detect toxic smoke and hazardous gases at fire scenes. This technology helps strengthen firefighter safety when responding to high-risk incidents, particularly in high-rise buildings, basement areas, and industrial facilities where hazardous chemicals may be present. By enabling personnel to assess conditions remotely, the robot can help reduce their exposure to dangerous situations and support more informed operational decisions. Its deployment highlights the growing relevance of advanced firefighting equipment in strengthening Indonesia’s emergency response capabilities. (Source: Kompas.com)
To explore regional developments and connect with international industry stakeholders, Indo Firex, Rescue & Disaster will visit The Fire Safety Event Asia in Singapore on 10–12 November 2026. The visit will provide opportunities to discover emerging technologies, exchange industry insights, and explore solutions relevant to Indonesia’s evolving fire protection and emergency preparedness needs.
The international engagement comes as Napindo prepares to introduce a broader direction for the exhibition. Established in 2003 as a dedicated fire-protection exhibition, Indo Firex introduced its expanded identity, Indo Firex, Rescue & Disaster, on 11 August 2026 during the exhibition. The rebranding marks an expansion beyond fire protection to encompass rescue operations, disaster management, and occupational safety and health, with the new identity officially taking effect from the 2027 edition.
The exhibition’s development is supported by the strong participation achieved through Napindo’s co-located exhibitions in 2026. Held alongside Indo Security, Indonesia International Smart City, Indo Water, Indo Waste & Recycling, and Indo Renergy & Electric, the event brought together 700 companies from 23 countries, fully occupied a 20,000-square-metre exhibition area, and welcomed 17,925 professional visitors over three days. Building on this achievement, the 2027 co-located exhibitions aim to attract more than 700 companies from 30 countries, feature 12 international pavilions, cover a projected exhibition area of 20,800 square metres, and welcome 18,000 visitors. This shared scale offers opportunities for cross-sector collaboration, technology discovery, and business networking.
The 14th Indonesia’s No.1 International Fire Protection, Rescue, Disaster Management, Safety and Health Industry Event will take place on 24–26 August 2027 at Nusantara International Convention Exhibition (NICE), PIK 2, Tangerang, Indonesia. Through its expanded scope, Napindo aims to bring together government institutions, manufacturers, solution providers, and industry professionals to encourage knowledge exchange across the sector.
