JetFoam 3% (ICAO-B)

Foam Concentrates
Written By Mark Bowden

JetFoam ICAO-B is the world’s first film forming, fluorine free (F3) high performance foam concentrate, designed for extinguishing and securing flammable aviation fuel spills and fires (Jet A and Jet A1).

JetFoam ICAO-B won the Gold Green Apple Award in the Science and Technology category for its environmental properties.  It is a truly biodegradable foam concentrate with minimum environmental impact and outstanding performance, which is strong enough to tackle aviation fuel spills and fires.

Benefits:

  • Designed for extinguishing and securing flammable aviation fuel spills and fires

  • Used in high risk situations where hydrocarbons and aviation kerosene are processed, stored or transported

  • Low viscosity allows for easy induction

  • Provides a vapour-sealing blanket of foam that rapidly spreads over the fuel surface to provide rapid control and extinguishment

  • Readily proportioned using conventional foam proportioning equipment

  • Use with air aspiring discharge devices

  • Suitable for use with potable and fresh water

  • Suitable as dry powder extinguishing agents either separately or as twin agent systems

  • 100% biodegradable

Approvals & Listings

  • Tested to EN1568:2018 part 3.

  • Performance exceeds the requirements of ICAO 2013 Level B fire performance and is certified to this performance level.

Application

  • Used in high risk situations where hydrocarbon fuels such as Jet-A, Jet-A1 and aviation kerosene are processed, stored or transported.

  • Used on Aviation Rescue Fire Fighting Vehicles (ARFFV), Rapid Intervention Vehicles (RIV) and airport crash trucks where fast extinguishment is essential for saving life.

  • Provides a vapour supressing foam blanket on Jet-A and Jet-A1 spills.
