Fomtec Enviro for Emergency Response

From Wildland fires, through the diverse requirements of Municipal Fire Departments to the critical risks in the Industrial sector Fomtec offers a growing range of Enviro Fluorine Free Foam Concentrates formulated for the specific  Emergency Response missions.  

Class A, Class B, hydrocarbon fuel fires and polar solvent fuel fires can all be effectively tackled with an Enviro product. 

The applications within the emergency response mission are varied and cover a multitude of different fuel hazards, fire hazards and application methods within the overall emergency response mission to mitigate the impact on human life and property of an incident. Distinct from systems applications when foam is used in an incident it must be recognised that in most cases firefighters are also putting themselves in harm´s way.

In this section we are highlighting Fomtec’s range of Enviro Fluorine Free Foam concentrates designed for use with handlines, monitors and in the case of the Wildland mission – air drop. 

Rapid flame knock down, fire extinguishment and post extinguishment reflash security are all components that minimise the risks to firefighter safety, and reduce damage to property. 

Most emergency response missions occur where containment of the foam is just not possible so in addition to firefighting performance, Fomtec’s range of Enviro Fluorine Free Foam concentrates are formulated with specially selected chemicals to minimise environment impact.
