Wagner at Buildinx 2025: Digitalization and Sustainability in Fire Protection
Wagner Group GmbH will be presenting pioneering solutions for fire protection in modern logistics properties at Buildinx in Dortmund from November 18 to 20, 2025. The focus of the trade fair presentation at booth 5.B80 in hall 5 will be on digitalization and carbon-neutral fire prevention – two key areas for more safety, efficiency, and sustainability in the real estate industry. In addition, Wagner will demonstrate how risks in sensitive technical areas can be reduced effectively and how these areas can be protected against malfunctions with an aspirating smoke detection system that was specially developed for server and control cabinets.
The Titanus Rack Sens aspirating smoke detector is ideal for use in the IT infrastructure of automated distribution centers. The compact system detects even the smallest smoke particles at an early stage and enables rapid intervention before business interruptions or property damage occur.
In addition to early detection, the system can be combined with targeted extinguishing; the extinguishing agent can be placed directly in the cabinet or outside. This ensures maximum operational readiness and reliable protection for critical digital processes.
With its Fire Protection 4.0 approach, Wagner uses AI-supported condition monitoring as an example to show how innovative digital technologies increase the safety of systems while reducing operating costs.
Carbon-neutral fire prevention is made possible by innovative fuel cell technology, which operates emission-free and also meets the highest safety standards through oxygen reduction. This provides an innovative, economical, and sustainable fire protection solution with the added value of simultaneous emission-free and self-sufficient energy production.
Special highlights on the topics mentioned can also be found in the Buildinx supporting program:
Dr.-Ing. Tobias Frank, Director of Digital Services at Wagner, will speak about "Fire Protection 4.0 – How AI and Data Are Already Driving Greater Safety" with Louisa Schlang in the Conference Area on November 18 at 12:30 p.m. Using concrete practical examples, he will show how digital services are revolutionizing transparency and efficiency in fire protection.
A panel discussion on the topic "New energy, new risk? Hydrogen in logistics real estate I How fire protection and security of supply should be considered together." will also take place in the Innovation Area on November 18 at 1:30 p.m.
Jens Büchler, Product Manager at Wagner, will join Martin Pollpeter, Managing Director and Owner at Bockermann Fritze plan4buildING GmbH, in a compact discussion round to highlight the determining factors in the use of hydrogen technology from various perspectives – from the point of risk, safety, and prospective viability.
The focus will be on the opportunities hydrogen offers for resilience, security of supply, and sustainability, and the risks that operators, insurers, and fire protection experts need to keep in mind. Impulses for a carbon-neutral infrastructure for modern logistics properties can be expected in this panel discussion, which is chaired by insurance expert Ralf Keck.
