With its powerful defoaming action, silicone can be an important tool in fire-fighting exercises.

Say the word “bubbles”, and detergent is one of the first things most people think of. But not all bubbles are so useful. In industrial applications, bubbles and foam can cause real problems, reducing process efficiency and negatively affecting product quality. That's where silicone defoaming agents come in.

For example, fire-fighting exercises often involve the use of fire-fighting foam, and lots of it. But once the exercise is over, a silicone defoaming agent can be used to break up this foam quickly, making cleanup efforts easier.
