Core offering

Fast Rescue Solutions develops and manufactures the FAST Board, a patented rigid rescue platform with integrated webbing, lashing, and rope components designed to rapidly package and extract downed firefighters and civilians from hazardous environments. The company also produces the FAST Shield (tactical ballistic shield) and offers a portfolio of accessories (flotation devices, drag blankets, carry bags). In addition, the company delivers instructor-led technical rescue training programs covering firefighter rescue, water operations, HazMat operations, tactical operations, and train-the-trainer certification.

Product overview

FAST Rescue Solutions offers a unified portfolio of rescue equipment centered on the FAST Board, a patented rapid intervention platform for extracting downed firefighters and civilians from hazardous environments. The core FAST Board and its LED-lit variant serve as the flagship products, while the FAST Shield - Ballistic extends the technology into tactical/law enforcement applications. Accessories include flotation devices for water/ice rescue, drag blankets for HazMat scenarios, and various carry/deployment bags. Value packages combine the board with complementary accessories. The company also offers branded merchandise and comprehensive training courses. The portfolio is united by a common design philosophy: enabling rapid packaging and extraction in 25-30 seconds versus traditional 5-15 minute methods.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• SKEDCO: SKEDCO manufactures the SKED rescue stretcher, a competing rigid patient packaging and extraction system widely used in technical rescue, water rescue, and confined space operations — directly comparable to the FAST Board in use case and customer base (fire/EMS, tactical, USAR).
• CMC Rescue: CMC Rescue is a leading manufacturer of rope rescue hardware, harnesses, and patient packaging systems serving fire/EMS and technical rescue teams. It directly competes with FAST in the rope-integrated rescue equipment category and shares the same municipal and federal procurement channels.
• Petzl: Petzl is a globally recognized manufacturer of rope rescue equipment, descenders, ascenders, and headlamps used by fire, rescue, and tactical professionals. It overlaps with FAST in technical rescue applications and shares the same first-responder distributor network internationally.
• Sterling Rope: Sterling Rope manufactures NFPA-certified rope rescue and fire escape rope, which is a component integrated into the FAST Board (Sterling Escape Tech rope rated 3,900 lbs). It also sells direct to fire/EMS departments and competes in the broader technical rescue equipment market.
• Yates Gear: Yates Gear manufactures tactical, rescue, and rappel equipment (harnesses, packs, rope rescue hardware) for military, law enforcement, and fire rescue customers. It competes in similar product categories and shares the tactical/law enforcement buyer segment with the FAST Shield.

Broad incumbents

• Ferno: Ferno is a large, established manufacturer of patient handling, EMS, and rescue equipment (stretchers, cots, stair chairs) serving EMS and fire agencies worldwide. It is a broader incumbent with overlapping customer relationships but does not specialize in the rapid-intervention packaging niche.
• 3M DBI-SALA: 3M DBI-SALA is a broad incumbent in fall protection and confined space rescue equipment, serving industrial, fire/EMS, and military customers. It overlaps with FAST in confined space and rope rescue applications but as part of a much larger safety equipment portfolio.

Emerging players

• North American Rescue: North American Rescue specializes in tactical medical equipment and casualty response kits for law enforcement, military, and EMS. It is an emerging player with partial overlap to FAST in tactical casualty extraction and serves adjacent procurement channels (DLA, federal law enforcement).
• StatPacks: StatPacks designs medical and rescue packs, bags, and kits for EMS, fire, and tactical markets. It overlaps with FAST in mission-specific carry solutions (deployment bags) and shares the fire/EMS and tactical buyer base, though its core focus is on packs rather than patient packaging platforms.

Others

• Rev Group (E-ONE): Rev Group, through E-ONE and other brands, manufactures fire apparatus and specialty vehicles sold to municipal and industrial fire departments. It is adjacent rather than directly competitive, but shares the same municipal fire department procurement ecosystem and could bundle rescue equipment with apparatus sales.
