Wildfire readiness serves as a crucial frontline defence in safeguarding lives, property, and the environment across Australia. FRSA has been committed to equipping our crews to protect our communities and environments with most advanced solutions.
BLAZETAMER380 is a non-toxic, non-corrosive, and environmentally safe water-enhancing elastomer that makes water more effective for fire suppression. Aligning with FRSA's commitment, BLAZETAMER380 delivers powerful, immediate results — suppressing fires faster, reducing operational costs, and keeping firefighters safer on the ground and in the air.
Applications:
-
Aerial platforms — For all aircraft types including helicopters, SEATs, multi/single-engine scoopers, LATs, and VLATs
-
Ground engines & ATVs — Batch-mixed directly into any engine or all-terrain vehicle tank with no special equipment needed
-
Prescribed burning (RX fire) — Used for burnout and firing operations, treating fuels immediately before and during controlled burns
-
Wet line construction — Builds effective fire breaks without exposing mineral soil
-
Mop-up & hotspot suppression — Can be pre-mixed in slingable bags or dip tanks and deployed to remote fire lines
-
Structure protection — Applicable for direct suppression support in the urban interface
Key Features:
-
Enhanced water performance — Increased heat absorption, minimised evaporative loss, and boosted humidity under the canopy
-
Endothermic reaction — Rapidly cools fuels below flash point on contact, preventing re-ignition and visibly reducing smoke output
-
PFAS-free & non-toxic — Proven harmless to humans, animals, and vegetation
-
Adjustable mix ratios — Customisable concentration in real time based on fuel type, weather, and fire behaviour
Key Benefits:
-
Reduced flight time & cost — Fewer flight hours translate directly to lower operational costs, less pilot fatigue, and reduced aircraft wear
-
Greater firefighter safety — Quicker fire control means less exposure to heat, smoke, snags, and hazard trees for ground crews
-
Less water consumption — Enhanced water efficiency reduces the volume of water needed, preserving resources especially in remote operations
-
Works with existing tactics & equipment — No changes to current equipment or procedures required across ground or aerial platforms
