PyroBubbles

The patented GENIUS fire retardant PyroBubbles®

is suitable for lithium-ion batteries, liquids, building fire protection, cable ducts and other flammable materials of all kinds. The performance of GENIUS PyroBubbles® has been proven in numerous fire tests and laboratory tests and they are among the best extinguishing agents for fighting fires involving hazardous materials.

Inertisation

The dense spherical packing inhibits the transport of substances and effectively prevents the formation of flammable mixtures.

Cooling

The granulate absorbs a lot of energy due to its specific heat capacity. This reduces the temperature of escaping gases/vapours gases/vapours is reduced and spontaneous combustion is prevented.

Condensation

Vapours are cooled below their boiling point and condense on the granulate.

Adsorption

Vapours and liquids accumulate on the porous surface and can thus be disposed of in a bound state.
