noignis Foam Spray Tests: A New Milestone in Eco-Friendly Firefighting

We’ve just completed new foam spray tests—and the results mark a major step forward for noIgnis in both performance and sustainability. Watch the videos here:

What the tests show

• Foaming & cling: Works at low, medium, and high expansion with standard foam equipment. The foam adheres to vertical surfaces for a long time, helping to smother heat and reduce re-ignition.

• Wetting & deep penetration: Strong wetting ability lets the agent penetrate deep into porous materials, speeding up knock-down and preventing early re-starts—from vegetation and building materials to plastics, tires, landfill fires, and vehicle fires.

• Fuel fires (Class B): Effective on hydrocarbon fires such as diesel, kerosene, and gasoline—ideal for vehicle fires.

• Corrosion inhibition (nitrate-free): Features a nitrate-free additive package with a strong inhibition effect against metal corrosion.

• Environment: Harmless to the environment and fully biodegradable. Lower water use can also reduce post-incident cleaning and water damage.

• System compatibility: noIgnis is a wetting and foaming additive for Class A fires (wildland, urban, industrial) and is compatible with CAFS (Compressed Air Foam Systems).

• Standards: EN 1568-1 / 1568-2 / 1568-3.

Foam quality (indicative)
