A big thank you to the New City Fire Engine Co. No. 1 for their continued trust in RPI to deliver their Train the Trainer Escape System Training last month!

This type of training matters. When departments invest in instructor-level escape system training, they are building more than individual skill. They are strengthening their ability to pass on proven techniques, reinforce standards, and make sure their members are ready to act when conditions turn bad.

Escape system training is not something to take lightly. It is a critical part of firefighter survival, and having confident, capable trainers inside your department helps keep that knowledge sharp and operational for the long haul.

What a week at FDIC!

FDIC 2026 was an incredible success for RPI and Marsars Water Rescue Systems, and we want to sincerely thank everyone who stopped by the booth, checked out the gear, asked questions, and spent time with our team. The amount of traffic, conversations, support, and energy throughout the week was outstanding, and we are beyond grateful to have been a part of it.

One of the best parts of the week was seeing FDIC in full stride and feeling the passion for the fire service everywhere you turned. From young firefighters hungry to learn, to seasoned firefighters and instructors continuing to sharpen their edge, the pride, motivation, and commitment to the job were on full display all week long. That kind of energy is contagious, and it is exactly why events like FDIC matter.

A huge thank you to the Perth Amboy Fire Department for choosing Rescue Products International for your Rope Rescue Program last month!

Over several days of hard training, the students brought outstanding energy, strong motivation, and a serious commitment to learning and improving. From start to finish, this was a great group that showed up ready to work, ready to push themselves, and ready to build real capability on the rope!

We truly appreciated the opportunity to train with such a motivated department and be part of your program. Thank you again to everyone involved for the effort, professionalism, and drive throughout the course. Check out www.RescueProInc.com to learn more about our training programs and bring RPI to your agency!

Black Sunday changed the fire service, and the Phoenix Escape System was built from that hard lesson with one goal in mind: give firefighters a reliable way out when conditions go bad fast.

Built for the realities of the job, the system combines the RPI 1/23 Hook, Sterling XTec Technora rope, Phoenix Descender, and Tephra Carabiner into a lightweight, streamlined package made for fast deployment under pressure. This is not gear built for a catalog. It is gear built for the moment everything is on the line.

Designed by firefighters and trusted by firefighters, the Phoenix Escape System was made for real-world use and for one purpose above all else, getting you home. Visit RescueProInc.com/gear/phoenix-escape to order yours today.
