TransNet NZ Ltd has introduced its MAUS Fire Stixx Pro system to the NZ market — a compact, heat-activated fire suppression device designed for confined spaces where traditional extinguishers don’t work.

Using a clean-agent suppressant, Fire Stixx Pro activates instantly and leaves no water or powder residue, making it ideal for protecting sensitive equipment.

Key features include:

• Clean-agent suppression — no mess, no damage
• Automatic heat activation for quick response
• Effective support for lithium battery fire scenarios
• Compact design for tight, enclosed areas
• Suitable for switchboards, commercial kitchens, boats, ATVs, and vehicles
• Developed in Scandinavia and used throughout Europe

Fire Stixx Pro brings a new level of protection to areas where fires can start fast — and where cleanup needs to be minimal.

We have a CONZTRUCT 2025 grand prize winner!

New Zealand homes are evolving—and so are the demands on electricians. From EV chargers to solar, batteries, and smart tech, traditional plastic switchboards are struggling to keep up.

PDL Home’s new Resi9 full-metal combined meter & data board is here to meet the challenge. Engineered for today’s complex residential installs—and tomorrow’s—Resi9 delivers safety, flexibility, and a sleek, professional finish that electricians will actually enjoy installing.
