Featured This Quarter

Residential WUI homes — Pacific Palisades

When the January 2025 Palisades fire front advanced on residential blocks, AFT crews pre-treated home perimeters in coordination with local private fire fighter teams. The homes that received treatment stayed defensible long enough for active suppression to focus where it mattered most.

  • Pre-treatment window: 12 to 48 hours before flame front arrival
  • Crews mobilize with ATV and truck-bed Home Protection rigs
  • Treated surfaces: roof, siding, fence, mulch, perimeter vegetation
  • Coordinated handoff with municipal incident command

Homeowners & WUI

Wildfire reaches faster than the fire department.

In a wind-driven event, an ember cast lands on your roof, fence, or mulch bed 20–60 minutes before any flame front arrives. Conventional brush clearance cannot defeat ember ignition — the structure itself has to be defensible. Homeowners in the wildland-urban interface need a treatment they can apply themselves, on a fixed schedule, with no specialized PPE.

  • Water-based, PFAS- and fluorine-free — safe around pets and gardens
  • 300 SF/gal coverage rate
  • Compatible with garden hose, pump sprayer, or commercial rig

Code-compliant without changing how the room feels.

Hospitality and commercial operators cannot close a guest-facing space for fire-spec rework. AFT treatments apply over existing surfaces without altering aesthetics.

  • Apply via spray, pad, dip, brush, or fog — works at the mill or on-site
  • Clear, odorless after cure — preserves color and hand-feel
  • Holds through commercial laundering cycles
  • Single chemistry covers curtains, carpet, upholstery, and wall coverings

Proof · Lear & Gulfstream cabin textiles

Gulfstream tested three competing chemistries against their cabin textile spec. AFT Fire Inhibitor was the only one that passed FAR 25.853 across every panel without compromising hand-feel, drape, or odor. Standard hospitality fabrics are an easier substrate than aviation silks — if it passes there, it passes here.

Industrial deployment
Industrial
Manufacturing, Energy, Logistics

When the fire is already burning, you need it out fast.

Industrial sites carry the full Class A through K threat profile — combustible liquids, greases, oils, solvents, lithium batteries, and metal fines. Legacy AFFF foams now carry PFAS liability and regulatory exposure. Facility managers need a single suppression chemistry that is rated across every fire class, environmentally clean, and stays put through overhaul.

  • Rated for Class A, B, D, F, and K fires from one drum
  • PFAS-free, fluorine-free, biodegradable — clears modern environmental rules
  • Mix 1:100 with water — works with existing CAFS and ground-monitor rigs
  • Prevents reignition through the entire overhaul phase

ASTM E84 Class A · Fluorine & Halogen Free
Proof · Minutes to Knockdown - 0 reignition

Fire fighting departments and hazmat crews have successfully used the AFT Wetting Agent on jet fuel fires, diesel fires and other high temperature flammable fires with successful results in a matter of minutes - not hours - and with no re-ignition issues.

Forestry & Wildland
Wildland Response, Utility Vegetation

Defensible perimeters at the speed of an ember cast.

Utility right-of-ways, municipal interface zones, and high-value structures need pre-treatment of standing vegetation before red-flag windows. The treatment has to be biodegradable, non-toxic to wildlife and waterways, and durable enough to survive a season of sun and rain. Most legacy retardants fail at least one of those three constraints.

  • Aerial, ground, or backpack application
  • Non-corrosive to spray equipment and vehicles
  • Halts flame propagation and eliminates afterglow
  • Compatible with helicopter buckets and slip-on tanker units

    Holding the Line at Pacific Palisades

    When the Palisades fire front advanced on residential blocks, private firefighters used AFT to pre-treat structures and surrounding vegetation. Homes treated with the AFT Fire Inhibitor were measurably defensible when the flame front arrived, allowing crews to focus suppression where it mattered most.

Frequently asked

Buying questions, answered before the call.

The questions our industry specialists answer most often on procurement, compliance, and product fit. If your scenario isn't here, send it to us directly.

Ask a specialist

  • For homeowners and WUI residents, start with the Home Protection Solution — it is purpose-built for DIY perimeter defense with no specialized PPE. For permanent fire hardening and fire protection, apply one of our Fire Defense Paints as a primer to the exterior of your home and choose a topcoat color of your choice. Hospitality, marine, and aviation buyers use AFT Fire Inhibitor on soft goods and textiles. Commercial and industrial facility managers typically pair the Fire Defense Coating on structural surfaces with the Fire-Extinguishing Wetting Agent on hand for active response. Our industry specialists can recommend the right starting kit on a 15-minute call.

  • AFT chemistry is PFAS-free, fluorine-free, halogen-free, and bromide-free. It is biodegradable and certified by UL GREENGUARD Gold for low chemical emissions. Most legacy AFFF formulations are now regulated or banned in many jurisdictions due to PFAS contamination of soil and waterways. AFT was engineered from the start to clear modern environmental rules without sacrificing fire-class coverage — our Wetting Agent is rated Class A, B, D, F, and K from a single drum.

  • No. The Fire Inhibitor cures clear and odorless on textiles and porous materials — Gulfstream and Lear specifically chose it because their cabin textiles passed FAR 25.853 without altering hand-feel, drape, or color. The Fire Defense Coating is paint-applied and integrates seamlessly with existing finishing systems. These were design constraints, not afterthoughts.

  • Yes. Fire Inhibitor and Fire Defense Coating apply via spray, pad, dip, brush, roller, or fog — standard equipment with no exotic tooling required. The Wetting Agent dilutes 1:100 with water and runs through existing CAFS, ground monitors, and slip-on rigs. The Home Protection Solution can be applied with a backpack sprayer, pressure washer or ATV mounted tanks for larger properties.

  • We do. AFT Fire Inhibitor has cleared FAR 25.853 for cabin-grade applications including the Air Force One (VC-25) program, Gulfstream, and Lear Jet. We provide full SDS documentation, technical data sheets, test reports, and OEM materials qualification support. Reach out via the contact form below and a specialist will route the request to the right program manager.

  • Most industry-specialist consultations happen within one business day. For specified product orders, standard packaging ships in 5–10 business days; OEM or facility-scale deployments are scoped on the call. For active wildfire response, AFT mobilizes crews directly — call the number on the contact page rather than waiting for an emailed quote.
