Fire suppression foam comprises three parts: foam concentrate, water, and air. When mixed correctly, these parts form a homogeneous foam blanket that extinguishes flames by the combined cooling

By creating a blanket of foam, these systems effectively smother the fire, cutting off its oxygen supply and preventing re-ignition. This page explores the benefits, applications, installation process,
This high expansion foam creates an upper depth, less wet blanket with large bubbles. It is very light and can quickly fill an extended enclosure. A small amount of water creates a large amount of foam
The systems use lower water flow and pressure than traditional foam water systems; thus, the systems may be designed for applications with as much as 75% less water demand. This quick response
Faster Extinguishment and Greater Efficiency - CAF reduces surface tension dramatically, allowing rapid penetration and cooling. Studies and field tests show it extinguishes fires 3–10 times faster than
Designed for high-risk environments, this fire foam suppression system uses high-expansion foam to fill large spaces with firefighting foam. By completely enveloping the area, it prevents the combustion of
In the event of a fire, a closed, temperature-resistant foam blanket is laid over the source of the fire. The foam blanket prevents the fire from spreading and smothers the fire. This system is used when water
So, what exactly are fixed foam fire-extinguishing systems? In a nutshell, they are pre-engineered, permanently installed systems that discharge a fire-extinguishing foam agent over a
Compressed Air Foam Units are self-contained and stored-energy having the added ability to inject compressed air into the foam solution generating a powerful fire attacking and suppression solution.
Semi-Portable Compressed Air Foam Fire Suppression Systems (60-200 gal): Suitable for rescue operations in fire fighting vehicles, airports, public buildings, heliport fire protection, transportation
