Foam Systems

Foam Systems

Foam systems are essential for protecting environments where water alone might not suffice.

They work by creating a blanket that smothers fire, cools the surface, and prevents re-ignition. Depending on the application, we design systems using low, medium or high expansion foam.

High expansion fills large spaces quickly, like aircraft hangars, while low expansion is ideal for coating and containing surface fires.

Foam can be injected into sprinkler or deluge systems, or delivered through specialist equipment such as foam monitors (cannons), bund pourers, or ceiling and wall-mounted generators.

These systems are powerful but require careful planning around containment, drainage and environmental regulations.

We guide clients through every part of the design, ensuring performance, compliance and long-term safety are built in from the start.
