The HotFoam™ System
HotFoam™ effectively protects confined areas from most hazards, as it combines the advantages of conventional foam systems and the known extinguishing properties of water. The finely atomized fog that is produced immediately after its activation causes a rapid drop in temperature, which can already result in extinguishing the fire at this stage, as well as allowing evacuation. Then, in a short period of time (appropriately selected by the designer), the protected area is tightly covered with foam, which floods the flame. The foam film, unlike water, stays on the material, cutting off the supply of oxygen from the air, which prevents the combus-tion reaction from occurring, and also has an insu-lating effect on substances not covered by the fire, thanks to its low thermal conductivity. The small amount of solution leaking from light foam results in the fact that post-fire losses are much smaller than in the case of water-based systems.

HotFoam™ effectively protects confined spaces from most hazards by combining the benefits of conventional foam systems with the well-known extinguishing properties of water. The finely atomized mist produced immediately after activation causes a rapid drop in temperature, which can extinguish the fire and allow evacuation.
Then, in a short time (chosen by the designer), the protected area is tightly covered with foam that floods the flame. The foam layer, unlike water, remains on the material, cutting off the supply of oxygen from the air, which prevents the combustion reaction from taking place, and also has an insulating effect on materials not covered by the fire, thanks to its low thermal conductivity.
The small amount of solution that leaks from light foam means that post-fire losses are much lower than with water-based systems.
