NEXT GENERATION SOLBERG FOAM TECHNOLOGY Solberg is proud to release its next generation of Solberg Foam Technology – the new Solberg RF Series of foam concentrates. The new Solberg RF Series of fire fighting foams use an advanced extinguishing mechanism that is highly effective against even the most difficult flammable challenges. Best of all, the new generation Solberg RF Series of foam concentrates do not contain Fluorosurfactants, Fluoropolymers or Fluorotelomers. New Technology, Traditional Performance RF3 can be applied with all existing equipment. When proportioned at 3% concentration with water of all kinds it has the ability to flow quickly and freely across the surface of hydrocarbon flammable liquid fuel. Fire control and extinguishment is rapid and effective.

SOLBERG® RE‑HEALING™ RF3 foam concentrate from SOLBERG is an innovative environmentally sustainable fluorosurfactant and fluoropolymer-free foam concentrate used to effectively extinguish Class B hydrocarbon fuel fires. Proportioned at 3% solution, SOLBERG RE‑HEALING RF3 foam concentrate can be used in fresh, salt or brackish water. SOLBERG RE‑HEALING RF3 foam possesses excellent burn back resistance due to its remarkable flow and rapid resealing characteristics. SOLBERG RE‑HEALING foam concentrates are formulated using a new high performance synthetic foam technology to replace traditional AFFF, FFFP foam concentrates and older protein and fluoroprotein foams. RE-HEALING RF3 foam concentrate contains no sediments.

SOLBERG RE‑HEALING RF3 foam concentrate
is intended for use on Class B hydrocarbon fuel fires. It is not intended for use on Class B polar solvent fuels. The foam can be used to prevent re-ignition of a liquid spill and control hazardous vapors. On Class A fuels, SOLBERG RE‑HEALING RF3 foam will improve extinguishment in deep-seated fires. Foam discharge devices such as air aspirating, as well as, non-air aspirating equipment, including standard fire sprinkler heads, can be used to obtain maximum results. The product is mixed 3 part foam concentrate to 97 parts water. It may also be used as a 3% pre-mix solution. SOLBERG RE‑HEALING RF3 foam is compatible with most dry powder (chemical) agents.†
