Global security expert Allen-Vanguard is urging fire fighting teams around the world to review the suitability of their foam systems and training for decontamination and suppression situations involving chemical, biological and radiological agents (CBR).
The unique foam based CASCAD™ Modular Decontamination System provides first responders with the ability to use a single system and its decontaminant foam to cover up to 26,910ft² (2,500m²) per hour whilst simultaneously fighting fires. It fully encapsulates CBR agents to suppress any vapour or particulate hazard until the decontaminant has fully neutralised the threat and has successfully extinguished any Class A and B gasoline and diesel fuel fires.
The system is versatile and safe to use, works with fresh or salt water, can be used on vehicles, equipment, buildings, aircraft, terrain, ships etc whilst its modular design makes it easy to transport and simple to set up. Allen-Vanguard provides and guarantees the availability of training and support in all aspects of its use and stands ready to work with customers to meet their special needs, and to ensure its success in service.
Roy Peers-Smith, president and chief executive officer at Allen-Vanguard said: "Our CASCAD™ Modular System provides an unmatched speed of response and level of safety which therefore offers unique and world leading capabilities to the Armed Forces, Governments, First Responders and fire departments of the world."
