Silvara I Fluorine Free Fire Fighting Foam 1%

Description

The first Newtonian Fluorine Free Fire Fighting Foam 1% concentrate in the world!

The move to new generation firefighting foams that are free of PFAs has never been easier. Silvara I is a fluorine free, low viscosity Newtonian fire fighting foam concentrate for use in extinguishing hydrocarbon fuel fires and solids. It is transforming the way people look at fluorine free foam products.

Silvara I Fluorine Free Fire Fighting Foam 1% is an alternative to AFFF products – it forms a resistant foam to insulate the fuel from oxygen and extinguish the fire.  It can be used in fresh water to extinguish class B fires (Diesel & Oil fires). Due to its excellent wetting properties, it is also useful in combating class A fires (solids).

It is not suitable for use on polar fuels.
