DESCRIPTION: Foam is an aerated solution which is used for fire prevention and firefighting. Foam concentrate is the full strength liquid which is diluted and processed to produce foam. The foam solution is the mixture produced by diluting foam concentrate with water before processing to make foam. CLASS A FOAMS are mostly used to fight wild fires. They assist in the wetting and saturation of Class A fuels with water, which aids fire suppression and can prevent re-ignition. Class A foams are available for use with SafeQuip’S range of skid units. CLASS B FOAMS are best suited for putting out fires that involve flammable liquids. SYNTHETIC FOAM provide better flow and faster knockdown of flames, but offer limited post-fire security. PROTEIN FOAM are biodegradable. They flow and spread slower than synthetic foam, but provide a heat resistant foam blanket and are more durable. FIRE FIGHTING FOAM
