KMA Group BV has signed a distribution agreement with Intelagard Inc. The innovative products of this manufacturer of pressure foam systems (CAFS) have won their spurs extensively in the U.S. market and will thus become available in Europe for the first time. According to Intelagard CEO and founder Dennis Smagac, both companies share the same vision of protecting lives by offering fire safety as well as disinfection using user friendly solutions. Therefore, KMA is the perfect party to jointly extend its success to Europe. For KMA, this means a perfect addition to its range of fire safety products. This finally makes Intelagard’s products including the powerful portable CAFS and the disinfectant EasyDECON available in Europe.
Intelagard Inc. is a developer and manufacturer of mobile multi-functional compressed air foam systems. These compressed air foam systems (CAFS) are unique because of their compact size combined with powerful performance. Intelagard Inc., based in Colorado, has over 30 years of experience with compressed air foam systems. These pressure foam systems have been utilized by the Award winning. Decontamination solutions. The CAFS provide a single resource for multiple missions. Intelagard’s Macaw backpack was chosen by the US Army as the ‘new standard of Portable Fire Suppression equipment’ after a nine-year down-select process.
The Macaw backpack is multifunctional. This means it can be utilized to extinguish and disinfect. When on duty, firefighters get exposed to smoke, and toxic substances. In order to protect the firefighter’s health, it is important to disinfect the suit. The fluid in the Macaw backpack is interchangeable which means that apart from fire extinguishing, it can later be utilized to decontaminate the firefighter’s suit, protecting the first responder’s health.
The compressed air foam systems are user friendly since it instead of using water, the system uses a foam substance. This results in the systems being lighter than water-based systems. The lighter substance has a range as far as 30 meters and has an expanding ratio of 75:1. The foam creates an insulating barrier. This barrier cools, cuts of oxygen supply, and covers the fumes, flames, and heat. Since the pressure systems are foam based the foam adheres horizontal as well as vertical surfaces.
