Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) is a specialized firefighting foam used primarily for extinguishing Class B fires involving flammable liquids such as petrol, diesel, and jet fuel. It works by forming a thin, water-based film over the surface of the burning liquid, which blocks oxygen, suppresses vapors, and cools the fire, effectively stopping re-ignition. AFFF is composed of water, foam concentrate, and air, and is known for its ability to spread rapidly across flammable liquid surfaces, even those that are hot. It is commonly used by fire departments, airports, refineries, chemical plants, and in marine and military firefighting operations due to its fast knockdown capability and high effectiveness in large-scale fuel fireS. AFFF is particularly valued for its low surface tension, which allows it to quickly flow across the surface of burning liquids, creating a blanket that seals vapors and helps prevent oxygen from feeding the fire. This rapid film-forming action makes AFFF one of the most effective agents for suppressing pool fires and preventing re-ignition after the flames have been knocked down.AFFF can be applied using foam nozzles, portable extinguishers, foam monitors, or fixed foam systems, and is effective at very low concentrations, typically 1%, 3%, or 6% depending on the application and formulation. It is compatible with both fresh and salt water, making it suitable for use in marine environments as well.

 Aqueous Film Forming Foam is specifically formulated to combat Class A fires which include fires caused by combustible materials like wood, paper and textiles etc and Class B fires involves fires caused by flammable liquids and gases. It works by creating a thin aqueous film that rapidly covers the burning surface, cutting off the oxygen supply and effectively smothering the fire.Aqueous Film Forming Foam functions in three key ways: cooling the fire with its water content, sealing the fuel surface to prevent vapor release, and preventing re-ignition with its foam blanket. It is particularly effective on hydrocarbon fires such as gasoline, diesel, and oil-based products. Our Aqueous Film Forming Foam solutions are available in two concentrations: 3% AFFF for Class A fires and 6% AFFF for Class B fires. Additionally, our foam is made with fluorocarbon surfactants, which enable rapid vapor sealing for quick fire suppression. Compatible with most firefighting equipment, our Aqueous Film Forming Foam products provide a reliable, versatile solution for fire control. Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) is widely used in applications where flammable liquid fires pose a significant risk. It is commonly deployed in airports, where jet fuel fires require fast suppression, and in oil refineries, chemical plants, and fuel storage facilities, where spills or tank fires are potential hazards. AFFF is also used by fire departments for responding to vehicle fires and industrial blazes, and in marine environments like ports and ships, where flammable cargo or fuel leaks can lead to fire outbreaks. Additionally, AFFF is a critical component of military fire suppression systems and firefighting foam sprinkler systems in high-risk areas, ensuring rapid knockdown and vapor suppression to prevent re-ignition and protect life and property.
