Nowadays MOBIAK is the biggest company in Greece and one of the most rapidly developed in Balkan area, Europe and Middle East, ragarding the industry of Fire- Fighting Equipment. For more than fifteen years, MOBIAK’s activities developed in two main sectors, gases and fire-fighting. The first sector concerns the production and bottling of medical and industrial gases, while the second one the assembling and trading of fire extinguishers, the trading of all kinds of fire fighting equipment, fire suppression systems and fire extinguisher inspection. Moreover, after 2001, a third activity was added: trading of medical equipment. MOBIAK’s gases sector co-operates with some of the biggest production companies in Greece. Actually, MOBIAK procures the raw materials in liquid condition (Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen, Argon), stores them in big low pressure tanks and bottles them in high pressure cylinders. MOBIAK also produces Acetylene, while it also supplies with liquid Oxygen all the public Hospitals / clinics inside Crete inland. During 2006, the Company acquires a 2000m 2 warehouse in Aspropirgos (Attica) and at the end of the same year, a new warehouse 1500m 2 starts operation in Thessaloniki, in order to serve customers in both Northern Greece and the Balkan area.

The capability of the new production line of fire extinguishers exceeds 150 pieces per hour. The high sensitivity helium sensor tests for any possible leakage of the propellant gas for every produced or inspected fire extinguisher. At the same time, an important investment of 1,000,000€ was carried out in the gases sector. A new bottling line was then established and the old buildings were completely renovated (1000m 2).
