SparkBarrier

Class A Foam Concentrate

Your first line of defense against Class A fires

SparkBarrier is specially formulated to enhance the firefighting capabilities of water by utilizing a unique blend of surfactants to reduce water’s surface tension, creating an advanced foam blanket that envelops fuels with a dense layer of water. This barrier swiftly extinguishes fires, conserves water, minimizes damage, and ensures firefighter safety, making it a versatile choice for Class A fires in various applications like Compressed Air Foam Systems (CAFS) and Nozzle Aspiratede Foam Systems (NAFS), structural firefighting, forest fire suppression, and industrial Class A fires.
