Class A Foam Purchasing Assistance
The NCFS has Class A foam available for purchase by North Carolina fire departments. The foam can be used on all Class A fires and can greatly increase the wetting capability of water. Astaris Phos Chek is currently the only available brand for purchase.
NCFS obtains the foam through a blanket purchase order which results in substantial savings. The foam is then re-sold, at cost, to fire departments by the agency. The current price for the foam, which is sold in 5 gallon pails, is $13.09 per gallon. If interested in purchasing the foam, contact your county forest ranger or submit an order form.
