Shortly afterward, much of the company’s focus shifted to providing to the mining market, first in the United States and then, beginning in 1994, in Latin American countries. AFEX fire suppression systems are typically found on: excavators, haul trucks, power shovels, wheel loaders, bulldozers, graders, etc. Other industries served where fire is a significant hazard are steel, mass transit, pulp and paper and agriculture.
