🚒 We were excited to join the Vehicle Heavy Rescue - UKRO CPD Event, hosted by Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue Service at Waddington Training Centre yesterday.

The Vimpex team enjoyed delivering scenario-based, hands-on training on their Paratech heavy rescue equipment, which they supply to Fire Services across the UK. The training helped participants to build confidence and sharpen their skills in handling complex heavy vehicle incidents with a casualty-focused approach to heavy rescue.

It was great to collaborate with partners across the sector and support a CPD session that strengthens operational capability and teamwork within the rescue community. To top off a great day, the Red Arrows treated us to a fly-by during one of their training exercises.

Thank you to everyone who attended and got involved in this valuable training day. 👏

When every second counts, the DIABLo EV Immobiliser gives emergency services a reliable and simple way to secure electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles, keeping your first responders safe.

Why DIABLo is important for Emergency Services?
•It lets you immobilise EVs safely, without any risk of high-voltage current
•Includes both Type 1 and Type 2 male connectors
•Simulates the charging process so the vehicle remains immobilised and the brakes stay engaged
•Even when immobilised, 12 V systems (like electric boot release or seats) still function
•Comes in a bright orange “rip-open” pouch so won’t get left behind
•Compact, rugged and UK-manufacture
•Works without batteries or LEDs and is ready when you need it
