Perimeter Solutions introduced the introduction of a new line of fluorine-free firefighting foam concentrates for basic function use. Called SOLBERG VERSAGARD, the fluorine-free line debuts with SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100. SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 multipurpose 3×3 fluorine-free foam concentrate is an alcohol resistant, state-of-the-art pseudoplastic foam know-how designed for extinguishing and securing each Class B (hydrocarbon and polar solvent liquid fuel) and deep-seated Class A fires. This biodegradable and non-persistent concentrate is made with no siloxanes and is a mixture of hydrocarbon surfactants and additives that delivers wonderful foaming, vapor sealing, extinguishment and burn-back properties using contemporary, sea or brackish water. Some fluorine-free foams are viscous and infrequently present viscosity enhance when in contact with water. SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 creates very stable foams whereas preserving a similar viscosity to conventional AR-AFFF foams. This considerably improves storage, handling and long-term stability. SOLBERG VERSAGARD enters the market with a rising number of international certifications, including EN-1568-1/2/3/4:2018, LASTFIRE, ICAO B and International Maritime Organization.

SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 is designed to generate secure foams with excessive fluidity and sluggish drainage. This novel technology permits SOLBERG VERSAGARD to carry out similarly to fluorinated merchandise. It may be used with low-expansion foam equipment (nozzles and monitors) and medium- and high-expansion foam discharge gadgets to battle fires involving Class B hydrocarbon and polar solvent fuel fires. It is totally compatible and simply proportioned with normal firefighting tools, together with in-line inductors, self-inducting nozzles, fireplace truck pumps, bladder tanks, pump skids, balanced strain systems and extra.
In addition to its glorious foamability and bubble stability, SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 has wonderful wetting capacity, making it also an effective device for the extinguishment of Class A gas fires.
Multiple certifications demonstrate effectiveness
