ECOPOL 3N – Newtonian Fluorine-Free Foam for Class B Fires

Effectiveness on Class B Hydrocarbon Fires
ECOPOL 3N is a liquid, fluorine-free foam that provides an environmentally friendly alternative to AFFF. The foam has a viscosity similar to AFFF, so no modifications to dosing systems are required.

The foam blanket formed by ECOPOL 3N allows rapid extinction of hydrocarbon fires. The foam spreads quickly, blocks flammable vapours, and prevents re-ignition. It also provides a long-lasting cooling effect on the fuel and fuel tanks. ECOPOL 3N can be applied directly to the fire or indirectly via vertical surfaces.

The extinguishing performance of ECOPOL 3N is certified according to EN 1568-3 v2018, with class 1B in fresh water and 1C in seawater, by an independent laboratory. Its performance on hydrocarbon fires is comparable to AFFF foams.

Environmentally Friendly and Safe Formula
Choosing ECOPOL 3N means opting for an ecological solution that protects the environment and human health while remaining effective against hydrocarbon fires. ECOPOL 3N is formulated without silicones and without PFAS (fluorinated derivatives, including PFOS and PFOA), which are known to be potentially Persistent, Bioaccumulative, and Toxic (PBT) to living organisms. The foam contains no intentionally added PFAS and is readily biodegradable.

Versatile Usage and Fuel Types
ECOPOL 3N can be used on class B hydrocarbon fires such as diesel, crude oil, petroleum distillates, paraffin, and more. It can also be used on class A fires.

The foam is suitable for extinguishing flammable liquid fires, such as petroleum storage tanks and oil spills. It can be applied in low or medium expansion depending on the situation.

Applications and Users
ECOPOL 3N is used by municipal fire brigades, industries, and oil facilities seeking an environmentally friendly and effective alternative to traditional fluorinated foams.
