BIOFOR N
Fluorine-Free Multipurpose Firefighting Foam
The Ideal Ecological Multipurpose Solution for Modern Fire Protection
One Foam. Multiple Hazards. Zero Fluorine.
BIOFOR N is a high-performance, fluorine-free firefighting foam concentrate engineered to serve as an ideal ecological multipurpose solution for fire departments, industrial facilities, airports, and municipal agencies.
Designed to address both Class A combustibles and select hydrocarbon-based Class B fuels, BIOFOR N simplifies apparatus design and inventory management - while eliminating intentionally added PFAS.
Applicable on class A fires:
- Forest fires and wild fires: wood, bush, vegetation
- Structural fires: apartments, houses, farms, warehouses, vehicles, tunnel
- Industrial fires: landfills, trash, plastic, paper, tire, rubber, textile
- Mine fires
- Wet line application
Applicable on minor class B hydrocarbon fires:
- Vehicle fires, fuel tank leaks
The Ideal Ecological Multipurpose Solution
Modern fire protection demands more than suppression performance. It requires:
- Environmental responsibility
- Regulatory compliance readiness
- Reduced long-term liability
- Operational flexibility
BIOFOR N delivers on all four.
Its fluorine-free formulation supports evolving U.S. environmental standards while maintaining dependable extinguishing performance across multiple hazard types.
Designed for Dual-Class Versatility
BIO FOR is suitable for:
Class A Fires
- Forest fires and wild fires: wood, bush, vegetation
- Structural fires: apartments, houses, farms, warehouses, vehicles, tunnel
- Industrial fires: landfills, trash, plastic, paper, tire, rubber, textile
- Mine fires
- Wet line application
Applicable on minor class B hydrocarbon fires:
- Vehicle fires, fuel tank leaks
- Diesel fuel, gasoline, jet fuel, heating oil, and industrial hydrocarbons (always verify application guidelines for specific fuel types).
This dual capability reduces the need to carry separate foam concentrates for different hazard categories—especially valuable for:
- Municipal departments
- ARFF support units
- Industrial fire departments
- Marine and port facilities
- Fuel storage operations
Environmental & Operational Confidence
- Fluorine-free (no intentionally added PFAS)
- Biodegradable formulation
- Reduced environmental persistence compared to legacy AFFF
- Compatible with most standard proportioning systems
- Lower long-term environmental liability exposure
As federal and state regulations tighten around PFAS-containing foams, BIOFOR N provides a forward-looking solution without sacrificing suppression performance.
Recommended Proportioning Guidelines
Typical ranges (verify with technical data sheets):
-
Class A application: 0.1% – 0.5%
-
Class B hydrocarbon fuels: Typically 1% – 3% depending on hazard and system design
Always confirm proportioning equipment calibration and fuel compatibility prior to deployment.
Compatible With Existing Equipment
BIOFOR N is designed for use with:
- Around-the-pump proportioners
- Balanced pressure foam systems
- Fixed industrial foam systems
- Portable foam generators
- CAFS systems (where applicable)
Transitioning from legacy foams typically does not require major hardware modification.
