Foam Suppression and Foam Concentrates Systems
Description
Chemguard UL Listed high-expansion foam systems provide fire-fighting protection for diverse applications: aircraft hangars; basements; cable tunnels; flammable packaging areas; flammable liquid drum storage areas; hazardous waste facilities; LNG tank farms and loading facilities; mines; roll-paper warehouses; shipboard engine rooms, bilges, and holds; storage buildings; warehouses; and wildland fire breaks. The light, voluminous foam blanket produced by our high-expansion foam systems can quickly obtain great heights, reaching elevated flammable materials (such as on storage racks). The foam blanket efficiently transports small amounts of water to the fire, encapsulating the flammable vapors and causing suppression and extinguishment.
Chemguard foam systems can be designed and engineered for specific applications, such as use in harsh environments. In addition, many components are available as replacement parts (or improvements) for existing systems.
FOAM CONCENTRATES
Chemguard supplies fire-fighting foam concentrates to meet a wide range of fire-fighting challenges, including industrial, marine, mining, municipal, oil, petrochemical, and transportation. Our aqueous film-forming foams (AFFFs), Class A foams, wetting agents, high-expansion foam concentrates, and protein foams are suitable for ground and air attack, creating firebreaks, use with compressed-air foam systems (CAFS), and mop-up operations.
Chemguard's fire-fighting foams are some of the most environmentally friendly products in their class in the world. Our AFFF products have 30-70% less fluorochemical content than other UL Listed products on the market, while our Alcohol-Resistant Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AR-AFFF) has the lowest and best application rate in the industry.
Because of their effectiveness, Chemguard foam concentrates can achieve knockdown faster and with lower product volumes than similar agents, which can substantially lessen property damage and environmental impact.
