Insurance Company - Länsförsäkringar Bergslagen

At one of Sweden’s largest trotting training centers—home to elite horses and a leading national trainer—fire safety is business-critical. The value of the horses alone represents tens of millions of euros, and the facility spans several buildings and high-performance training areas. Here, a single fire could mean lost lives, lost investments, and lost operations.

In collaboration with Länsförsäkringar Bergslagen, MAUS was brought in to deliver a fire safety upgrade that matched the facility’s value, complexity, and vulnerability.

Fire Risk & Challenges

Across Sweden’s agricultural sector, fire-related damages account for over 60 million euros annually, much of which stems from electricity-related fires. For equestrian operations, the stakes are even higher—barns, stables, feed storage, and technical rooms often contain flammable materials, aging infrastructure, or hidden electrical faults. Fires here can cause total business loss, long recovery periods, and devastating emotional and financial consequences.

Marcus Fridborn, Head of Damage Prevention & Damage Service at Länsförsäkringar Bergslagen, explains:

“We work continuously and proactively with damage prevention. Through our collaboration with MAUS and the use of MAUS Stixx PRO, we help our customers prevent fires—with a clear win-win for all parties involved.”

MAUS Solution

The site was equipped with MAUS Stixx PRO—a pressure-free, maintenance-free fire suppression system that activates instantly when overheating or ignition is detected. With no need for electricity or plumbing, installation was fast and non-invasive—ideal for buildings housing sensitive animals or legacy infrastructure.

The system now protects critical electrical enclosures and high-risk areas across the site.

Benefits of MAUS Technology

• Silent, non-disruptive protection for horses and staff

• Residue-free suppression—no mess, no water damage

• Works without electricity or pressure

• Active fire protection 24/7 for five years—zero maintenance

• Perfect for barns, tack rooms, machinery areas, and feed storage

Conclusion

When the safety of animals, people, and property is paramount, MAUS provides the invisible shield modern stables need. Thanks to the collaboration between MAUS and Länsförsäkringar Bergslagen, this elite training center now enjoys round-the-clock fire protection—without disturbing its world-class operations.
