Turnkey Solutions for Conversions to Non-Fluorinated Foams

Compliance with IMO Regulations

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has introduced new regulations mandating the phase-out of firefighting foams containing perfluoro-octane sulfonic acid (PFOS) by 2026. This regulation aims to protect crew members from exposure to hazardous substances and minimize environmental impact. The ban applies to both new and existing ships, requiring the removal of PFOS-containing foams and the implementation of safer, non-fluorinated alternatives.
