Fire Defender Debuts F-exx Fire Extinguisher in the UK

Revolutionary fire extinguisher has no propellant, ensuring safe use; Features bio-degradable liquid foam; Works on all types of material; 3 in 1 use.

LONDON, UK – June 6, 2018 /MarketersMedia/ —

Fire Defender announced today that its revolutionary F-exx fire extinguisher is now available in the UK. Unlike CO2 fire extinguishers and dry powder-based models, F-exx enables a safe, intuitive way to fight fires in the home or car. Featuring organic, biodegradable liquid foam, F-exx is able to tackle the three main types of fires.

“It’s great that so many people want a car fire extinguisher or one for the home,” said a spokesperson for the company. “Unfortunately, the public is not well informed about the risks and consequences of dry powder and CO2 fire extinguishers. Our approach enables you to be fire safe without accidentally setting yourself up for a worse disaster or a health problem as the result of using the wrong firefighting tool.”

In contrast to the F-exx, a dry powder fire extinguisher may fill the user’s lungs with powder while creating a big mess to clean up. Worse, a dry powder extinguisher can allow a fire to reignite if the user doesn’t completely put the fire out. They also need to be checked every six months, a task that is almost universally neglected by consumers. CO2 fire extinguishers, while effective on electrical fires, threaten inexperienced users with suffocation if deployed in a closed environment.

As detailed on firedefender.co.uk The F-exx is light weight, made from plastic. Its bio-degradable foam is made of organic components, so it can be disposed of in a household bin. F-exx is propellant-free, so it can be turned sideways or upside down. Consumers find this an intuitive position. It works on all types of materials and on electrical fires as well as class A B, and F/K fires. Class A refers to solid combustibles like wood or paper. A class B fire is liquid-based, e.g. petrol while a class F/K is from cooking oil or fat. Indeed, 50% of fires start in the kitchen.

The lack of propellant makes the F-exx safe from explosion. It cannot inflate or deflate as the bar is the same inside the bottle as it is outside. In contrast, all conventional fire extinguishers use some kind of propellant like gas to discharge a fire extinguisher. This is why they are encased by metal.
