Gildemeister renews alliance with Bomberos de Chile

Gildemeister has renewed its alliance with Bomberos de Chile through the delivery of 19 new JAC T8 Pro pickup trucks. The vehicles will be deployed across all 16 regions of Chile to support operational tasks and emergency response.

Presented during the International Firefighters Fair (FIBOM) 2026, the fleet includes units specifically designated for technical training at the National Firefighters Academy. The agreement is structured as a bailment (comodato) for 24 months, after which Bomberos de Chile will have the option to purchase the vehicles at a preferential price.

The JAC T8 Pro models feature a 2.5-liter Isuzu turbodiesel engine designed to handle demanding off-road environments and difficult terrain.
