Fire Suppression Foam

BIO FOR – Fluorine-Free Class A/B Wetting & Foaming AgentEco-Conscious Firefighting Power for Wildland, Structural, and Minor Hydrocarbon FiresBIO FOR is a high-performance, fluorine-free wetting and foaming agent designed for effective suppression of Class A fires (solids) and minor Class B fires (hydrocarbons). With outstanding wetting and clinging properties, it is ideal for use in wildland firefighting, municipal fire departments, industrial incidents, recycling centers, and vehicle fires. Trusted by fire brigades and public safety agencies, BIO FOR delivers fast extinguishment, reduced reignition risk, and lasting surface protection—without compromising the environment.Firefighting PerformanceBIO FOR improves fire suppression through a dual-action system:Wetting Action: Penetrates deeply into solid fuels like wood, vegetation, and debris by lowering water surface tension. This speeds up knockdown and prevents fire reignition.Foaming Action: Produces a stable, clinging foam blanket that adheres to vertical and uneven surfaces, providing effective cooling with minimal runoff and prolonged burnback resistance.When applied in a wide coat—such as during wildland or forest fires—BIO FOR increases the moisture content of exposed materials, helping create a protective barrier (wet line) against advancing flames or spot fires.Environmentally Responsible100% Fluorine-Free Formula (F3)Free from PBTs, halogen derivatives, and persistent chemicalsFully biodegradableComplies with European Groundwater DirectiveBIO FOR is an eco-conscious solution that aligns with the increasing demand for sustainable firefighting products. It protects people, wildlife, and groundwater—without sacrificing performance.Application VersatilityBIO FOR is suitable for a wide range of fire scenarios, including:✔ Class A Fires (Solids):Wildland & forest fires: woodlands, brush, vegetationStructural fires: homes, apartments, vehicles, tunnelsIndustrial fires: landfills, tires, plastic, rubber, textiles, waste facilitiesMining incidentsWet line creation✔ Minor Class B Fires (Hydrocarbons):Vehicle firesSmall fuel spills or tank leaksUse & CompatibilityCompatible with all standard dosing systems (Newtonian fluid)Contains corrosion inhibitors for safe system useSuitable for mobile and fixed firefighting systems:Foam monitorsHose stationsCAFS systemsHigh-expansion generatorsAerial deployment via helicopter bucketCompatible with both air-aspirated and non-air-aspirated nozzlesEffective with fresh or sea waterConcentration RatesBIO FOR is highly effective at low usage rates—helping reduce supply requirements and overhaul time.Product VariantClass A ApplicationClass B (Hydrocarbon) ApplicationBIO FOR C0.1% (ultra concentrated)0.3%BIO FOR N0.1% (very concentrated)0.5%BIO FOR S0.5% (concentrated)3%Usable in low, medium, and high-expansion foam operations.Certifications & ComplianceEN 1568 Parts 1-2-3 (European Standards)VERITAS (Marine Use)CEREN Certificate & AATCC 17-2005 (Forest Fire Standards)UL Listed / NFPA 18 (BIO FOR N)Looking to improve your department's environmental impact without sacrificing fire suppression power? BIO FOR is your next-generation Class A/B foam solution.
