The fire service
A life for security
When people and animals are in danger, every second counts. For Manuel Knecht, this isn't just a cliché; it's part of his everyday life. As a chief fire officer with the Metzingen Fire Department, he's on the front lines, where courage meets precision and every decision can save lives. His job challenges him – both physically and mentally – yet his passion is evident in every move.

The firefighter with the FLEXVIT Resist
Before you stands a sculpture of courage, elegance, and a touch of irony. The firefighter, a symbol of unwavering bravery, stands in full gear with absolute concentration. But in his hand, the FLEXVIT Resist replaces the typical fire hose – a tongue-in-cheek act of transformation that combines power with movement.

Safety across the board
Consider the lines of the scene. The tension and soft curves of the FLEXVIT Resist flow harmoniously into the hero's figure, as if they were one. It's not just a training tool, but here a link between man and task, between body and art. The strength emanating from this pose is underscored by the blue ribbon color, contrasting with the fiery red readiness of this modern Hercules.
