FireIce Demonstration




A team of FireIce representatives visited the NEPPA Training Center recently to demonstrate a new product that is emerging into the firefighting marketplace. This product is designed to quench fires that have been burning and also to prevent fires from spreading.

Approximately 50 local utility and fire department personnel were present to hear and then to witness the product in action. Several members of the team worked in conjunction with the Littleton Fire Department to set various displays on fire (cars, hay bales, pallets, and Christmas trees) and then 
extinguish those fires with the new product. During the demonstration one of the team members coated his hand with the product and then placed the flame from a propane torch directly onto that hand with no sensation of heat whatsoever. 

Another amazing part of what was seen was one of the team members actually eating the product, which shows that it is totally harmless to humans and it is safe for the environment. One application of this product in the electrical field might be as a protection for electrical workers inside manholes that have been exposed to an electrical fault. There are several videos available on YouTube that can give you a glimpse of the demonstration witnessed here at the NEPPA facility.
