Class A Foam Agents

Foam concentrates to combat Class A combustible material fires.

Class A foams are well-suited for response firefighting of structural, wildland, and industrial fires that involve ordinary combustible materials such as wood, paper, coal, rubber, and plastic. They are formulated to reduce the surface tension of water to provide superior wetting and penetrating characteristics, while also creating a dense foam blanket that provides an insulating barrier between the fuel and the air.
