Made in Germany - a label that is used nowadays to advertise a product. Since this seal is hardly legally defined, we would like to explain to you why we label ours as "Made in Germany".
Owner and management of DÖKA Feuerlöschgerätebau GmbH
Since it was founded in 1948, the company has been independent and is 100% family-owned. From the beginning, and today in the third generation, the owners have been actively involved in the management. Flat hierarchies mean short decision-making paths, direct communication with customers and suppliers and of course employees.
The employees of DÖKA Feuerlöschgerätebau GmbH
The heart of the company, our employees in our plant in Kassel. Our team in administration and production ensures satisfied customers with their daily commitment. With a high degree of self-determination and personal responsibility, they can use their own skills and carry out their daily tasks with motivation.
Product development
The development and further development of our fire extinguishers takes place in-house. From the idea to the finished product, all technical and commercial aspects are considered together in the team. Even with more than 70 years of experience in developing and manufacturing fire extinguishers, we still don't know everything. That is why we of course also use the expertise of our suppliers and external consultants and incorporate this into our considerations.
Sure, the fire extinguisher is not a technically highly developed product and is largely regulated in terms of form and design. In the end, however, it is the little things and details that make a well-engineered product even better and offer the user a bit more performance and security.
Production
The manufacture of our products takes place exclusively in our factory in Kassel. From almost 100 different types of fire extinguishers, there are over 400 different designs. From series production in large numbers to the manufacture of special extinguishers and mobile fire extinguishers. You can be sure that every fire extinguisher that leaves our factory fell through the hands of our employees.
Quality control
The selection of components is already done with the greatest care and pre-defined quality criteria in close consultation with our suppliers. The quality controls are multi-level and begin before the delivery by the supplier. The tests range from individual acceptance by a certified body to repeated checks before dispatch by the supplier, incoming goods checks, ongoing checks during all manufacturing processes to checks during the final assembly of the fire extinguisher. All tests are normatively specified and / or are specified in our quality management system according to ISO 9001: 2015.
