For over 45 years, Williams Fire & Hazard Control has stood at the forefront of industrial emergency response and equipment innovation. Since 1980, our global response team has tackled nearly 300 of the world’s most challenging incidents, gaining a reputation as the original pioneers in large-scale flammable liquid and gas emergencies. Williams Fire & Hazard Control specializes in:
• Storage tank fires
• Multi-target incidents
• Marine vessel fires
• Pipeline and transportation emergencies
• Toxic and flammable vapor control
• Chemical and subterranean fires
• Loading dock and terminal incidents
• Tire fires and more
From the Panama Canal to energy hubs across the U.S., South America, Africa, and the Pacific Rim, Williams has been on the front lines, safeguarding the vital infrastructure that powers our world. Our reach is global, but our commitment—to safety and technical excellence—is highly focused with each response. Innovation Born from Experience
Every crisis we face drives our pursuit of more effective solutions that provide the greatest measure of safety and success. Our patented equipment and methodologies—including the world’s first Self-Educting Automatic Nozzle, our Ranger Series Hydro-Foam™ and Hydro-Chem™ nozzles, and our top-tier foam concentrates lead the industry because they’re forged in real-world experience. Landmark Achievements Set the Bar
Extinguishment of a fully-involved 270-foot gasoline/MTBE tank fire in 2001 – the largest of its kind – established a benchmark that continues to define both innovation and performance in our products and methods. In 2025, that legacy was advanced when our response team, working alongside firefighters at an industrial client facility, successfully extinguished a fully involved 70-foot diameter fuel oil tank fire using our Williams WNF33A non-fluorinated foam and hardware. Performance is our Standard™
At Williams, performance isn’t a promise … it’s a proven reality. Minimum compliance standards or “good enough” are simply not in our best interest with lives at risk. Reliability and performance are the drivers in everything we do. Our team’s collective experience is reflected in organized, effective responses, and in every piece of equipment we develop. “Performance” … that’s the standard we set and the legacy we build on. Stewardship
Experience forges wisdom. Wisdom informs effective leadership. Leadership imprints our legacy. Our story is told in the loyalty of our clients, the lives we protect, and the assets we save. Williams Fire & Hazard Control works beyond the response. We help our clients prepare for crisis. Our seasoned Emergency Response Team offers site assessments to help develop site-centric response plans. We have trained thousands of emergency personnel from dozens of countries and across all continents in tactics and equipment applications. We also provide rental equipment and technical support before, during, and after emergencies. As an independent response force, we’re ready to deploy anywhere, anytime—either as a primary team or in support of client operations.
