NIEDNER HYDROVEILTM
Percolated Forestry Hose
HydroVeil™: Advanced Self-Protecting Percolated Forestry Hose
Introducing HydroVeil™, Niedner’s percolated lay-flat hose engineered for the extreme unpredictability of wildland firefighting. Technologically evolved to weep water through its jacket wall, it creates a continuous thermal barrier that protects both the equipment and the crew’s water supply when fire conditions shift without warning.

Engineered Percolation
HydroVeil™ solves the most critical failure in wildland firefighting through a precision-engineered 100% filament polyester jacket that weeps water at a controlled rate of less than 150 ml/m/min at 100 psi. This continuous moisture barrier creates a self-cooling shield that allows the hose to be laid directly on hot ground, over live embers, and through active fire perimeters — without jacket failure. That’s not a flaw. That’s the feature.
Advanced TPU Liner
An extruded TPU liner provides superior resistance to ozone and aging. Unlike traditional liners that degrade and crack under UV-exposed storage, HydroVeil™ maintains its elasticity and structural integrity year after year — ready to perform the moment conditions demand it.
Mildew Resistant Jacket
The 100% filament polyester jacket is treated for high mildew resistance, eliminating the storage rot that plagues cotton-blend hose stored wet or in humid field conditions. HydroVeil™ comes out of storage the same way it went in: ready.
Certified Protection
HydroVeil™ is certified to ULC S519.1 — meeting the rigorous performance standards demanded by government fire agencies across Canada and the United States. Every spec published. Every claim defensible. No guesswork when the fire arrives.
High Burst
Engineered to 900 psi burst pressure — a 3X service pressure safety ratio — HydroVeil™ delivers the structural confidence required for direct attack operations in the most demanding terrain. 300 psi service pressure, 600 psi proof pressure, 900 psi burst.
The 10-Year Promise
Built to last. HydroVeil™ is backed by a 10-year manufacturer warranty against manufacturing defects. When Niedner puts its name on a hose, the commitment doesn’t end at the point of sale.
