Moray Fire & Safety and Firemiks Enter Collaboration Agreement
An important step towards safe and modern environmentally friendly foam solutions
Moray Fire & Safety AS has entered into a collaboration agreement with Firemiks, an established supplier of mechanical foam dosing systems for fire suppression internationally. The collaboration strengthens MorayFS's ability to deliver forward-looking fire protection solutions, with particular focus on fluorine-free and environmentally friendly foam for maritime, offshore, and land-based facilities.
Why This Collaboration Matters
The industry is in the midst of a shift from traditional fluorinated foam chemicals to more sustainable, fluorine-free alternatives that reduce environmental impact without compromising safety and performance. The collaboration with Firemiks enables MorayFS to offer solutions tailored to both today's and tomorrow's requirements for environmental standards and fire safety.
With mechanical dosing systems that utilize water flow to mix foam concentrate accurately, installations become simpler, more reliable, and less dependent on complex electronics. This provides robust systems that perform well in demanding environments such as offshore, industrial, and maritime sectors.
Easier Transition to Fluorine-Free Foam
Many organizations currently have older foam systems designed for traditional concentrates, often with high content of fluorinated compounds such as PFAS. The transition to fluorine-free foam can seem challenging, both technically and economically.
With Firemiks technology, MorayFS can offer solutions where existing facilities can largely be upgraded rather than completely rebuilt. Often, adjustments to foam dosing and piping will be sufficient to achieve stable operation, good performance, and reduced environmental footprint.
Solutions for Maritime, Offshore, and Land
The collaboration encompasses both new installations and upgrades of existing systems across multiple segments:
Maritime installations: Foam suppression systems for ships and vessels of various sizes, adapted to international requirements and classification society standards.
Offshore: Robust and reliable solutions for platforms and other offshore installations, where mechanical dosing systems provide high reliability under demanding conditions.
Land-based facilities: Solutions for industry, logistics, terminals, storage tanks, and special areas where foam suppression is an important measure against major fires.
This enables MorayFS to customize systems based on risk, regulations, and local conditions, while customers have one partner to deal with throughout the entire process from consultation to completed facility.
Benefits for Customers and Owners
The collaboration between MorayFS and Firemiks provides several concrete benefits:
Lower Operating Costs
Modern mechanical dosing systems have few moving parts, require less maintenance, and provide longer intervals between services, reducing total operating costs over the facility's lifetime.
Simpler and Safer Testing
Systems can be tested with water without having to use foam concentrate, making the testing process cleaner, faster, and more environmentally friendly, while reducing downtime and resource consumption.
Enhanced Environmental and Sustainability Profile
Transitioning to fluorine-free foam helps organizations meet stricter requirements from authorities, customers, and owners, and supports internal sustainability strategies and ESG goals.
Future-Proof Investment
Upgraded systems are adapted to current standards and equipped to meet upcoming requirements for both fire safety and environment, providing increased confidence for long-term investments.
Optimized for Modern Foam Concentrates
Firemiks systems are particularly well-suited for foam concentrates with high viscosity, which many of the newest fluorine-free products have. This ensures correct dosing even where traditional solutions may face challenges, contributing to stable and predictable performance in a real fire situation.
For customers, this means greater flexibility when new foam types are introduced, and the opportunity to stay at the forefront of technology without having to invest in completely new facilities every time the market or regulations change.
