Environmentally safe, biodegradable, non-toxic.
Features
- Completely Non-Toxic wetting agent
- Made from natural, biodegradable and renewable sources (non-synthetic) achieving 95.3% TOC in 28 days
- Environmentally friendly with an indefinite shelf life
- Use up to 80% less water for the same impact
- Compatible with existing equipment
- Can be used in automated sprinkler systems
- Up to twenty one times more effective at cooling than water
- Can be supplied in small, pre-mixed, lightweight, pressurised canisters
Advantages
- Zero environmental impact in day to day use.
- Hazardous Materials Identification System rating of 0,0,0 – the same as water.
- If stored between 0°C – 48°C, it will last indefinitely
- No special disposal requirements:- it can be safely disposed of in municipal systems, requiring no cleanup
- Fires are extinguished faster and using less water
- Class A, B & D fires can be tackled using the same agent
- Fires are cooled faster to lower the risk of structural damage
- Fires are cooled faster enabling the firefighters to get to work on the scene much sooner, saving time and lives.
- Existing equipment can be used to provide the equivalent capability of hi-ex type foams
- Tested according to NFPA 18 Standards
Benefits
- Fire crews can take an immediate and local decision to use the additive, thereby controlling the fire faster, reducing the loss of lives and damage to property, as well as making it safer for the fire fighters.
- A single product can be used for most conflagrations, giving increased flexibility and responsiveness of tenders and crews in a wide geographic area, and helping to reduce the cost of providing a wide range of capabilities to the community.
- Either the same number of crews can deal with an increase in incidents, or fewer crews could be used to give the same fire-fighting effectiveness, and saving money.
- Crews will be able to deal with a wider range of fires using the same equipment without the need to use special turbine generators/pumps, again saving costs and increasing performance.
- Zero environmental impact means there is an opportunity to save on disposal costs.
- Using up to 80% less water to put out a fire will result in less water damage to property.
- Approved by the Underwriters Laboratory and the Environmental Protection Agency in the USA, the additive will further enhance a fire service’s reputation in deploying best practice to save lives and service the community, thereby enabling it to meet social and environmental responsibilities at the same time.
- Deployment of smaller, fast-response vehicles, strategically based throughout the region, could provide the same level of cover as larger but more widely spread tenders, again saving time to respond and save lives and property.
- Less damage and cleanup required, saving money and time.
- Less diking required, saving money and time.
- Less water used to enhance the sustainable use of resources.
- Suppressant made from natural renewable resources, which will enhance your sustainability performance
- Indefinite life will reduce the operating costs of your service.
