32 | WATERLINE April 2026 Fire remains one of the most serious risks facing marinas and boatyards, with traditional extinguishers often causing extensive secondary damage due to corrosive powder or foam. Australian waterfront engineering and marine infrastructure consultancy, Copley Marine Group (CMG), has partnered with MAUS, bringing clean, sustainable fire-suppression technology to the Australian marina and boating industry. Internationally recognised for its clean, residue‑free aerosol technology, MAUS is a compact, handheld, automatic suppression extinguisher ideal for engine bays and battery compartments, and scalable for protecting larger operational spaces such as control and server rooms and other marina infrastructure. MAUS technology eliminates secondary fire damage caused by corrosive powder and foam, using its non-toxic, patented potassium‑based aerosol which extinguishes fire rapidly without leaving chemical residue, preventing contamination, electrical damage, and costly clean‑up. Devices are non‑toxic, maintenance‑free, and safe for people and the environment The maintenance free MAUS range includes compact handheld extinguishers, automatic suppression units for engine bays and battery compartments, and scalable systems capable of protecting larger operational spaces such as control rooms and server facilities. All devices are non‑toxic, maintenance‑free, and safe for people and the environment, offering a modern alternative to powder‑based systems that can cause long‑term corrosion and equipment failure. Copley Marine Group Managing Director, Al Copley, said the arrival of MAUS represents a major step forward for the sector. “Marinas and boatyards face unique fire‑risk challenges, and MAUS provides a smarter, cleaner, and more reliable way to protect assets, people, and the environment. We’re proud to partner with MAUS and their world‑leading technology and support operators in strengthening their safety systems without compromising environmental performance.” For more information visit: copleymarine.com.au or contact info@copleymarine.com.au COPLEY MARINE GROUP BRINGS SUSTAINABLE FIRE-SUPPRESSION TECHNOLOGY TO AUSTRALIA INDUSTRY NEWS SECONDS MATTER AT SEA MAUS automatic aerosol suppression detects and attacks fires at the source - engine bays and electrical compartments before they spread.
