Indicated for class A fire fighting in paper, rubber, tire, textile, cotton, plastic, mining, and coal storage industries, among others
Can be used in equipment with or without air aspiration
Compatible with dry chemical powder

São Paulo, May 2023 – Kidde launches Sintex Class A – foam-generating liquid – composed of hydrocarbon surfactants and free of fluorine. It was developed specifically to meet the ABNT NBR 16963: 2022 standard, which is specific for fighting class A fires – solid materials – such as paper, rubber, fabric, wood, among others.

“Foam-generating liquids (FGL) are used for extinguishing fires. However, many are unaware that one of the most efficient and effective ways to put out a fire is through cooling, which occurs with the mixture of water and FGL and not just with the use of water,” explains Nathalia Bueno, Product Marketing Specialist for the Carrier Fire & Security fire line. In such cases, Nathalia adds, “the product should be applied through conventional solid jet and mist nozzles. The solution quickly penetrates the combustible material, allowing the cooling properties of water to control the fire more effectively.”
