Informations on our own behalf

FirePublications - New Name and new Logo!
The former "Presse- und Werbeagentur" (Press- and Public Relations Agency) got a new name: "FirePublications"!
With this new name and with the respective logo we will try to be equivalent in the context of our work and the growing international contacts.
While the characters "FirePublications" marked our letterheads, our emails and our webpages since a longer time, you will find the embroidered logo with the stylized flame and the Europe-Stars next on our duty clothes, on t-shirts and on other presentations.
"FirePublications", flame and stars will now especially reflect our international views and orientations in the context of the Fire- and Rescue Services in Germany, Europe and in the USA.
