Fires caused by hydrocarbon fuels such as diesel, gasoline, and others have a flame spread rate of approximately 4-5 km/h. These fires are classified as Class B and cannot be extinguished using water alone.

 Class B Fires

Solution

To combat Class B fires, the solution is to use FireFoam. This is a water-based chemical foam fire suppressant. It is highly effective in extinguishing fires involving hydrocarbon fuels such as diesel, gasoline, kerosene, and others.

It is very economical, capable of extinguishing fires with only a concentration of 1-6%. It is environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and biodegradable.
