Among the equipment the Chinese government handed over were water and fuel bowzers; fire-fighting units with engines and protective regalia; a refrigerated truck and excavators.
The Kenya Defence Forces also received recovery units and vehicles.
Defence CS Raychelle Omamo and Chinese ambassador Liu Xianfa said the handover marked the importance of the relationship between Kenya and China.
"This handover marked the continued cooperation between the governments of Kenya and China, and projecta future prospects in regard to security, stability and prosperity globally," said Omamo.
She noted that her ministry initiated the purchase of the equipment from China in 1995, beginning with a fleet of Y-12 aircrafts.
Xianfa said cooperation for the region's peace and security has become the Chinese government's focus.
"China and Kenya have maintained close communication and cooperation in the field of anti-terrorism, culture piracy and regional peace keeping missions, in the form of the youth security council and climate change," he noted.
The ambassador added that the two countries have worked together on matters such as fighting terrorism in Somalia.
"The Republic of China will continue supporting the people of Africa to independently resolve African issues in African ways, for the sake of maintaining peace in the continent," he said.
