Method
Firefighting Reinvented
The Cobra SAVE Method provides one of the safest, cleanest, and most efficient approaches to firefighting. By enabling the cooling of fire gases from a secure position outside the fire compartment, it supports fire and rescue services in protecting both firefighters and the environments they serve.
Safer, Cleaner, More Efficient
Safer Firefighting
Internal firefighting exposes Firefighters to significant risks, both physical and psychological. The Cobra Method of Scan, Attack, Ventilate, and Enter – SAVE – offers a far safer firefighting option for firefighters.
Cleaner for the Environment
Cobra is cleaner in multiple ways. It reduces the direct environmental impact on our surroundings and planet, while also contributing to a cleaner, safer, and healthier working environment for the individual firefighter.
More Efficient for Communities & Teams
Using Cobra quickly suppresses fire development, giving the Incident Commander valuable time to coordinate an efficient response. By applying Cobra early, rapid fire spread can be contained, protecting both communities and teams.

See the impact of Cobra’s ultra-high pressure and water mist technology, demonstrating a safer and more effective approach to firefighting.
Handling of Lithium-ion fires
Research and practical use confirms that Cobra effectively manages lithium-ion battery fires in EVs, while requiring only a small amount of water.
Multidimensional Use
Cobra is more than a single-solution tool to tackle one specific problem; it is a versatile asset for a wide range of challenges.
SAVE – Scan, Attack, Ventilate, Enter
The Cobra Method SAVE
The Cobra Method reduces firefighters’ exposure to heat, toxic smoke, and other risks, lowering both immediate and long-term health effects. It can create a critical window for incident commanders to safely conduct tasks, like rescues, that might otherwise be impossible.
The Cobra Method, SAVE, dynamically combines situation Scanning, ultra-high pressure water mist Attack from a safe external position, and tactical Ventilation before, or in conjunction with, Entering the fire compartment.
