Bambi Bucket Systems
The original Bambi Bucket was introduced by SEI Industries Ltd., in 1982. Back then, fire fighting buckets were not new but what SEI was able to perfect was a collapsible bucket with pilot-controlled valve and delivery of a concentrated column of water from the helicopter to the fire. The development of this innovative aerial firefighting technology was a culmination of valuable feedback from helicopter operators as well as Canadian and American forest and land management agencies that use helicopter firefighting equipment to protect remote areas from fire.
Today, SEI still services over 90 percent of the aerial firefighting water bucket market. The Bambi Bucket brand is known amongst firefighting agencies worldwide and has become synonymous with aerial firefighting. The legendary Bambi Bucket is used in over 110 countries around the world.
Since 1982, a variety of options have been developed to meet the requirements of different types of helicopters. The expanding line of Bambi Buckets now sees over 20 different sizes ranging from its smallest , a Robinson R44 bucket, to the 2,600 US Gallon version. SEI has also added several options from the multiple dump, variable-flow Aqualanche & Torrentula valves, to bottom-filling PowerFill technologies and foam injection systems, to data logging and load-shedding capabilities.
