foam index page

                                                  Description                                                  

The FIREHOUSE Quality firefighting foam  offers two specially designed synthetic foam formulations which are biodegradable and environmentally friendly for use in live fire-training sessions. Both formulations are suitable for use with both fresh and salt water and can be used with all siliconized dry chemical agents and can be proportioned at either 3% or 6%.

  • The FIREHOUSE Quality firefighting foam is Specially formulated to simulate standard AFFF fire fighting training foam concentrate during live fire training on low vapor hydrocarbon fuels.
  • Benefits: Shorter drain time than standard AFFF, which results in a reduced burn back resistance allowing more repeat fire training sessions.

The FIREHOUSE Quality firefighting foam is a Supertrain AFFF fire fighting training foam is a specially formulated, biodegradable, synthetic foam concentrate which has been specifically developed to simulate AFFF during live fire TRAINING sessions on low vapor pressure hydrocarbon fuels.

The FIREHOUSE Quality firefighting foam is a Supertrain AFFF  fire fighting training foam has similar performance characteristics as an AFFF but with a shortened drain time which results in reduced burn back resistance. This feature allows more repeat fire training sessions. Because of the limited burn back resistance of the generated foam, it is recommended that no person be allowed within the hazard area during any training session until it has been declared safe by the training supervisor. Depending on available equipment, Supertrain can be used at either a 3% or 6% proportioning rate.
