Foam extinguishing systems are capable of quickly and effectively fighting fire and so offer optimum protection to people and the environment. They are often employed in high-risk situations in, for example, PGS and PGS-15-29 structures (for the storage of hazardous substances) and Seveso companies (which have large quantities dangerous substances).
WHERE CAN A FOAM EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM BE APPLIED?
Foam extinguishing systems are used to fight liquid fires and cover liquids to prevent (re)ignition. Foam is also an effective extinguishing agent on burning solids. A specific application is the preventive covering and containment of LNG/LPG fires. Foam is used primarily in the chemicals and petrochemicals industry, processing industry, storage and transhipment facilities, airports, helidecks, tank storage, loading and unloading areas for ships, trains, etc.
