Mechanical Foam Fire Extinguisher (AFFF or AR-AFFF) has the ability to from an aqueous film, which quickly forms over water insoluble hydrocarbon fuel surfaces causing rapid fire extinguishment and vapour suppression for Class B fires. It also provides excellent penetrating and wetting qualities when used on class A fires.

AFFF Fire Extinguisher

Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF) extinguishers differ from other foam types primarily in their chemical composition (containing PFAS "forever chemicals"), their fire suppression mechanisms, and their environmental impact.

Where to Use Foam Fire Extinguisher?

Foam Based Fire Extinguisher can be used on class A and B Fires. They are most suitable to extinguishing flammable liquids containing materials such as petrol, diesel, solvents and fats like grease and oils.

Mechanical foam type fire extinguishers (AFFF – Aqueous Film Forming Foam) are effective for fires involving flammable liquids. They are widely used in areas such as paint storage, lubricant facilities, chemical industries, oil refineries, kitchens and restaurants, boiler rooms, and similar high-risk environments.
