Abilities

'Emusilfier'
FireAde has the unique ability to render fuels non-flammable (skin fires and fuels in depth) unlike regular foams that only cover the surface.
'Wetting Agent'
FireAde enables water to six times more effective at suppressing fires. It covers more area, penetrates deeper into burning materials and knocks down fires much faster than AFFF foams or water alone.
'Foaming Agent'
Although not specifically designed as a foam, When FireAde is used in foaming generating equipment or nozzles, it will produce and maintain a foam blanket covering the fire and effectively depriving it of oxygen. The FireAde foam blanket will last longer and stand up to the effects of foul weather and heat longer then AFFF or FFFP foams.
'Cooling Agent'
FireAde has the ability to rapidly cool the fuel and surface more then water or regular foam alone. This gives firefighters the ability to handle previously hot objects only seconds after extinguishment.
