AFFF Fire Fighting Foam

Description

AFFF Firefighitng Foam

AFFF foam is a special type of foam which lowers the surface tension of water, allowing it to spread quickly and completely cover the burning fuel. This forms a thin film that acts like a double whammy:

  • Blocks oxygen: The film cuts off the fire’s oxygen supply, which is essential for flames to burn.
  • Stops evaporation: It prevents the fuel from vaporising, further starving the fire.

The result? AFFF foams smother and extinguish hydrocarbon fires (like gasoline or oil) quickly and safely. Plus, our AFFF foams use advanced C6 technology, making them environmentally friendly and free of harmful PFOS chemicals.

C6 Fluorine. No PFOS.

Fluorine Free Alternatives

Recent legislation passed in Queensland has focused Industry on the removal and destruction of fluorinated AFFF fire fighting foam concentrates containing PFOS and PFOA and replacing them with Fluorine Free Alternatives.

Fire Response offer a range of fluorine free foam concentrates and we are the exclusive Australian distributor of VS Focum fire fighting foam concentrates.

As an AFFF and Fluoroprotein foam alternative, this advanced formulation produces a similar fire-fighting performance as AFFF and Fluoroprotein products while containing no organofluorine components. When used in systems and handline applications, SILVARA produces a strong and cohesive foam blanket on the surface of the fuel to extinguish fire and suppress fuel vapor.
