About Pro-Tec Fire Services

Pro-Tec Fire Services offers long term contracted Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighting (ARFF) services to our customers, and has done so for more than 35 years.

We pioneered the contract Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighting services market in the United States in 1975. Under the guidance and vision of Norm Watermolen, the company negotiated and commenced a contract for ARFF services at Austin Straubel International Airport (GRB) in Brown County, Wisconsin. This was the first contract of its kind in the country and to this day Pro-Tec still provides services to Austin Straubel Airport, 35 years. To date, Pro-Tec Fire Services, Ltd. has ARFF contracts throughout the U.S. and Canada.

A company's reputation is built on its performance over the long term. We are proud of our 35 years plus of superior performance, sustained by a professional staff and a clearly defined set of core values, code of conduct, and mission statement. They provide a standard for our company and employees as well as an objective means for our clients to measure us by.
