operation and development of their fire services.<br />

to customers in most parts of the world for a number of<br />
years, <strong>Falck</strong> expanded its competencies in the fire area and, with<br />
that, <strong>Falck</strong>’s total product offering now fully meets the demand<br />
on that market.<br />
<strong>Falck</strong> operates fire-fighting services at Sweden’s largest Airport,<br />
