An impenetrable perfect forest fire defense line
DM Fire's K-Fire Retardant is not just a simple extinguishing agent. By forming a strong flame-retardant film that does not burn even in high heat of hundreds of degrees and strong winds, it is a cutting-edge disaster response solution that fundamentally blocks the spread of forest fires and protects precious lives and national assets.
Main Usage Purposes
K-Fire Retardant is designed to be widely utilized in all areas related to forest disasters, including forest fire extinguishment, proactive prevention, and facility protection. Composed of 100% eco-friendly natural ingredients, it is safely applied without destroying the ecosystem.
Building a forest fire spread block line (defense line)
In the event of a forest fire during the spring or autumn when a dry weather warning is issued or strong winds blow, a defense line is preemptively built to prevent the flames from spreading to private houses or downtown areas. When K-Fire Retardant is applied to the edge or adjacent area of a forest, a strong flame-retardant coating is formed on the surface even after water evaporation, preventing combustion even when sparks touch it. This secures golden time for extinguishing crews to be deployed and perfectly blocks secondary damage.
- Preemptively block inflow to private houses in case of a large forest fire
- Defend rugged mountainous terrain where fire helicopter access is difficult
Protection of national cultural properties and major facilities
National treasure-level wooden cultural properties, temples, and natural monument colonies located in forests are very vulnerable to fires. Before a forest fire approaches, spraying the retardant preemptively on surrounding trees and exterior walls of buildings can protect precious heritage from fire. Manufactured with 100% natural ingredients without chemical toxicity, it can be applied directly and safely without concerns about corrosion of dancheong or wood of cultural properties, or soil pollution.
- Direct application around wooden buildings and cultural properties
- Fire prevention in natural recreational forests and ecological conservation areas
Protection of transmission towers and core national industrial infrastructure
High-voltage transmission towers located deep in the mountains are core facilities that cause enormous social and economic damage in the event of a forest fire. The fire retardant is sprayed on vegetation around these national core infrastructures to preemptively block fire access. With special adhesion technology applied, once applied, it is not easily washed away by rain and wind, maintaining a long-term preventive effect.
- Preemptive spraying around high-voltage transmission lines and outskirts of substations
- Protection of military and dangerous facilities such as ammunition depots and oil storages
Helicopter aerial spraying and initial special extinguishment of forest fires
The extinguishment method of simply spraying water has limitations in suppressing large forest fires because moisture evaporates immediately due to high heat. When the retardant is mixed with water and dropped directly onto the fire point via a fire helicopter or a special forest fire extinguishing vehicle, it exhibits an overwhelmingly faster and more certain extinguishing effect compared to plain water. It dramatically lowers the flame temperature and cuts off the oxygen supply, instantly raising the initial extinguishment rate.
- Wide-area aerial spraying using Korea Forest Service and fire helicopters
- Immediate response utilizing forest fire specialized prevention and extinguishing unit vehicles
