PF,FP,AR-FP,FFFP & AR-FFFP
Foam Concentrates
Protein (PF), Fluoroprotein (FP), Alcohol-Resistant Fluoroprotein (AR-FP), Film-Forming Fluoroprotein (FFFP) and Alcohol-Resistant Film-Forming Fluoroprotein (AR-FFFP) are high-performance firefighting foam concentrates designed for hydrocarbon and polar solvent fires. These protein-based foams provide superior heat resistance, burn-back protection, and rapid fire suppression efficiency.
Key Features
-
Tough foam blanket with high thermal stability.
-
Rapid knockdown of hydrocarbon fires.
-
Special polymeric barrier for polar solvent fires.
-
C6 fluor surfactants ensure lower environmental impact.
-
Stable in storage with extended usability.
