CheckFire Ltd, a leading fire safety supplier, is proud to announce the latest addition to its innovative CommanderEDGE enviroFoam fire extinguisher range: the 3-litre unit. Completing the fluorine-free foam range from CommanderEDGE, the 3-litre fire extinguisher offers versatile fire protection without compromising performance, marking another significant step in CheckFire’s journey toward providing sustainable, PFAS-free solutions.
The new 3-litre enviroFoam fire extinguisher carries a fire rating of 13A 70B, making it a reliable option for smaller environments, offering lightweight dimensions in a high-performing, compact unit. Like its larger counterparts – the 6-litre and 9-litre units – it features the internationally recognised BS EN3 Kitemark certification, which guarantees superior quality and performance.
The completion of the enviroFoam range is timely as legislative changes are on the horizon for PFAS-containing fire extinguishers. With the European Union (EU) set to implement a comprehensive ban on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) by 2030, the availability of safe, high-performance alternatives is more crucial than ever. CheckFire’s enviroFoam fire extinguishers are designed to meet this demand, offering a fluorine-free solution that keeps fire safety front and centre.
CheckFire’s enviroFoam fire extinguishers boast industry-leading performance ratings, with the 9-litre unit achieving an outstanding 34A 183B rating, and the 6-litre unit at 27A 144B. The newly introduced 3-litre extinguisher maintains the same high standards, ensuring dependable protection against Class B flammable liquid fires, making it ideal for industrial warehouses, manufacturing facilities, laboratories, and more.
As part of CheckFire’s continued commitment to sustainability, the enviroFoam range features the distinctive Green Crosshair symbol on the cylinder, indicating its PFAS-free status, in line with the company’s focus on environmentally responsible products.
Cameron Robins, managing director of CheckFire, commented on the milestone: “The introduction of the 3-litre unit completes our enviroFoam Fluorine-Free Foam Fire Extinguisher range and strengthens our commitment to providing sustainable, PFAS-free fire safety solutions. As legislation surrounding PFAS continues to tighten globally, businesses are looking for alternatives that meet both environmental and safety standards. Our enviroFoam range is designed to exceed those expectations, offering superior performance and peace of mind.”
With the completion of the enviroFoam range, businesses now have access to the enviroFoam fluorine-free foam cylinder available to suit a variety of settings and applications where there is a Class B fire risk. This milestone reinforces CheckFire’s leadership in the industry and its dedication to preparing for future environmental regulations, offering solutions that meet both current and future safety needs.
