INDUSTRIAL FIRE PROTECTION

Powerful, Modular Foam Fire Suppression Systems for Unmatched Protection

Traditional wet sprinkler systems are ineffective when dealing with fires caused by flammable or combustible liquids. Chamco provides a range of modular foam suppression systems that extinguish fires instantly while minimizing combustion risk. Our systems are engineered to produce high-expansion foams or low-expansion foams tailored to your specific needs and applications.

Foam Generators

Designed for high-risk environments, this fire foam suppression system uses high-expansion foam to fill large spaces with firefighting foam. By completely enveloping the area, it prevents the combustion of flammable vapours and liquids, ensuring superior fire protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Chamco’s foam firefighting systems are primarily utilized to protect bulk storage tanks. They are also widely applied in other high-risk settings, such as airports and aircraft hangars, to ensure reliable fire protection.

The toxicity of fire suppression foam depends on the specific type being used. Always consult the material safety data sheet to understand the potential risks of the chosen foam product.

Several types of firefighting foams are available on the market, each with a unique formula.

We commonly use 3% aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) or 3% alcohol-resistant synthetic foam. Each manufacturer’s firefighting foam is a unique patented formulation specific to its products.

Foam fire suppression systems combat fires by cooling the burning material, forming a protective coating, and smothering the fuel source. This process eliminates contact between oxygen and the fuel, preventing combustion.

Foam fire suppression packages are installed in conjunction with your firewater system. Water from the system mixes with foam concentrate, producing foam that is dispensed through hoses or hydrants to the designated area.
