Sythetic/Chemical Fire Suppression systems

Combustion can be simply explained as a process requiring fuel, oxygen & heat in order to propagate.

Whereas Inert gas systems (which can be regarded as a natural product system) work on the principle of removing oxygen, synthetic suppressant systems work on the principle of removing the heat element from the reaction.

FM200 and NOVEC 1230 are the two main synthetic suppressants that we recommend (See the drop down list from the Fire Suppression tab for more information on these).
