Wagner wins a GIT Security Award 2026 for CO2-neutral fire prevention
The Wagner Group has been awarded the GIT Security Award 2026 in the 'Fire Protection' category. The award was given for the innovative OxyReduct F-Line oxygen reduction system, which actively prevents the outbreak of open fires under defined conditions.
The system expands on the proven method of oxygen reduction with hydrogen-based fuel cell technology, which also enables an emission-free energy supply. The key advancement lies in the combination of a protective atmosphere and a self-sufficient energy supply. The OxyReduct F-Line ensures continuous fire prevention with CO2-neutral operation – a milestone in preventive fire protection.

The solution is specially designed for applications with high availability and protection requirements. It really comes into its own in automated or deep-freeze warehouses, data centers, and archives, where conventional extinguishing systems reach their limits. Thanks to continuous oxygen reduction, fires cannot start and damage from extinguishing agents or residues is avoided.
With this award, the jury, the voting experts and industry insiders recognize both Wagner's technical innovation as well as its strategic commitment to consistently combining sustainability and safety. The OxyReduct F-Line is exemplary of a new generation of fire protection that takes on responsibility and actively drives change.
