Bioclass F3+ fluorine-free foam extinguisher with optional separate container

Saval is the first in the world to succeed in developing a PFAS-free foam extinguisher with separate container. The new generation Bioclass F3+ foam extinguisher from Saval with separate container is a smart investment for optimal fire safety and sustainability. Thanks to innovative technology and a minimal waste stream, this extinguisher offers a quick payback time and a significantly lower environmental impact.

High extinguishing performance

Bioclass F3+ foam extinguishers are tested and certified with high ratings:

  • Fire Class A (solids): 27A (6 litres) and 34A (9 litres)
  • Fire class B (liquids): 113B (6 litres) and 183B (9 litres).

These impressive ratings ensure optimal operation and reliable performance in critical situations.

Operation of the separate container

Upon activation of the CO₂ cartridge, the released gas breaks through the separate container of extinguishing agent, allowing the two substances to mix perfectly. The extinguishing foam reaches the nozzle through a special filter and riser tube under ideal pressure, effectively covering and extinguishing the fire.

Why choose the Bioclass F3+ with separate container?

✅ PFAS-free foam - Safe for humans and the environment.

✅ Only one replacement of foaming agent, instead of 3 times in 20 years.

✅ Fast payback: additional investment recouped in 5 years with major maintenance.

✅ Reduced raw material consumption and waste streams - lower carbon footprint.

✅ Produced in the Netherlands - short lines, high quality.

The hidden risk of PFAS

Fluorurfactants and other perfluorinated compounds (PFAS) play an important role in all kinds of products: cleaning and maintenance products, packaging materials, textiles and coatings. But also in fire-fighting foams, the special properties of fluorine compounds ensure higher effectiveness and long shelf life. But these man-made chemicals have a major drawback: they are so stable that they cannot be degraded by nature and, moreover, they accumulate in fatty tissues of animals. Currently, the levels measured are still low, but in time, fluorsurfactants could also enter the human food chain in harmful quantities.

There is only one good solution to this problem: preventing these substances from entering the environment. We already took the first step several years ago by putting the harmful fluorsurfactants in a separate container in the extinguisher. Now we are taking the ultimate step: the new Bioclass F3 foam extinguishers are 100% fluorine-free.

Products made in-house

In its own factory in Breda, the Netherlands, Saval develops and produces, among other things, your fire extinguishers and fire hose reels. Customisation that is thereby possible, is reflected in the product novelties that Saval develops since the beginning for diverse clients in the Netherlands and abroad.
