Industry Trends and Drivers:
- Rising Industrial Fire Incidents:
The fact that fire occurrence has shown a raise in the industrial segments is a great demographical factor pushing the uptake of firefighting foam. Sectors such as the oil and gas, chemical production and energy often possess processes with high risk of fire breakout because of the products and material used. Bush fires in these sectors are complex and large in size and therefore; they need efficient methods of putting out the fires to avoid large casuaties. High expansion foam, used for its area coverage and rapid fire knock down, is acting as a must have in these high risk sectors. Moreover, the regulatory authorities of various countries are raising their demands towards the application of the effective fire suppression systems of industries. This push towards improving ‘safety compliance is in turn is driving adoption of firefighting foam as a reliable solution. In light of this rationale, the increased expansion of industries combined with the growth in new economy, especially in the developing world, is creating demands for use of the firefighting foam in cases of fire risks.
- Increased Awareness of Fire Safety:
Rising consciousness regarding safety from fire is one of the main factors that is may have faster growth in the market. Since fire dangers result to tremendous loss of property and lives, there is growing demand for improved fire extinguishing systems in many fields. People’s awareness of fire safety has been prompted by governments, organizations, and fire safety association across the world and this increase in awareness has seen governments and construction industries all over the world adopting stricter fire safety measures. This is serving to create much-needed high performance firefighting needs and foam based ones at that. Moreover, regular fire informative projects and preventive educational seminars contribute to enhancement of fire-related perceptions between the public and the industries. Firefighting foam has been identified as an efficient and universal firefighting tool with a very short time of operation and thus is gaining appreciation in fire protection strategies. This focus on preparedness and prevention is now promoting both businesses and the general population to spend on superior fire suppression technologies.
- Innovation in Foam Formulations:
Increased innovations in foam formulation are highly supporting the growth of the market. As the environment becomes a hot issue for concern, producers are coming up with better and efficient types of firefighting foams that pollute little or none at all. Old generation fluorinated foams have been in question concerning their impacts on the environment; thus, new fluoro-carbon free and bio-sourced foams appear. These novel blends are compliant with environmental legislation on emissions without degradation of fire extinguishing performance – a parameter that makes them desirable in industries that place high premiums on environmental concerns. In addition, there are increasing indications that sophisticated productions are being worked out in order to achieve Type of Foam to put off certain classes of fires, Which includes; Class-A, Class-B and Class-C fires. These formulations improve firefighting capacities in numerous domains and uses, such as oil and chemical fire, residential and commercial fire, among others.
