When dealing with complex fire hazards across hydrocarbon and polar fuel types, the right foam agent can make the difference between control and catastrophe. That’s why SILVER STRING CHEMICALS proudly offers a UL and EN approved Alcohol-Resistant Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AR-AFFF) 3%, engineered for reliable performance in the most demanding environments.
Our AR-AFFF agent appears as a clear to light yellow liquid, maintaining high stability across various climates. It features:
Specific gravity: 1.00 to 1.05 g/ml
Viscosity: 1500 to 2000 cps at 20°C
pH range: 6.5 to 8.5
These properties allow it to flow effectively through foam systems and prevent corrosion in storage tanks or pipelines.
Unlike standard foams, AR-AFFF forms a durable, sealing film that suppresses vapors and prevents fire reignition. It performs well against:
Hydrocarbon fuels (e.g., petrol, diesel)
Polar solvents (e.g., alcohols, esters)
You can apply it at 3% or 6% concentration, depending on the hazard, without sacrificing speed or foam quality.
This foam reduces surface tension, allowing water to penetrate deep-seated fires. It offers:
Foam expansion: 6:1 to 12:1
25% drainage time: Minimum 3.5 minutes
This long-lasting foam blanket ensures extended surface coverage and fire resistance.
The AR-AFFF solution is fully compatible with:
Carbon steel
Stainless steel
Polyethylene (PE)
Fiberglass and composite tanks
This reduces wear-and-tear on firefighting infrastructure and extends system life.
The product strictly complies with:
BS EN 1568-3:2008 standards
UL Listing
CE and EN certifications
These approvals confirm its reliability in international and local firefighting systems.
Thanks to its temperature resistance, AR-AFFF remains effective in both cold and hot regions of Pakistan.
Freezing point: -5°C to -10°C
Storage temperature: Up to 55°C
Shelf life: 7 years under proper storage
This makes it suitable for warehouses, oil depots, and outdoor facilities across Pakistan.
AR-AFFF is ideal for use in:
Oil & gas plants
Aviation fueling stations
Petrochemical storage areas
Marine terminals and shipping yards
Power generation facilities
It can be deployed via portable extinguishers, foam proportioning systems, fixed piping, and mobile foam units.

UL & EN Approved Foam for Hydrocarbon and Polar Solvent Fires
Effective fire suppression depends on using the right foam for the fuel type. SILVER STRING CHEMICALS offers premium Alcohol-Resistant Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AR-AFFF) designed for high-risk environments. Whether the fuel is gasoline, diesel, ethanol, or solvents, our AR-AFFF delivers fast action and dependable protection.
Our AR-AFFF has a clear to light yellowish appearance and stays stable across temperature variations. Its properties include:
Specific gravity: 1.00 to 1.05 g/ml
Viscosity: 1500 to 2000 cps @ 20°C
pH range: 6.5 to 8.5
These qualities allow smooth flow through foam nozzles and prevent corrosion in equipment, ensuring long-term compatibility.
This foam works on both hydrocarbon and polar solvent fires. It quickly forms a tough, film-like layer over burning fuel. This layer blocks oxygen, reduces vapor release, and stops reignition. You can apply it at 3% or 6%, depending on the fuel type, without sacrificing speed.
AR-AFFF improves fire control by reducing water surface tension. This lets it penetrate deep-seated Class A fires. It features:
Foam expansion ratio: 6:1 to 12:1
25% drainage time: Minimum 3.5 minutes
This helps maintain a stable foam blanket over wide areas.
Our foam is safe for use with materials commonly found in firefighting equipment, such as:
Carbon steel
Stainless steel
Polyethylene
Fiberglass
It reduces wear on system components and lowers long-term maintenance costs.
Our AR-AFFF complies with top-tier fire safety standards:
UL Listed
BS EN 1568-3:2008 certified
CE and EN approved
These approvals guarantee top-level fire performance, making it ideal for regulated industries and government compliance in Pakistan.
With a freezing point between -5°C and -10°C, and a storage range up to 55°C, this foam performs in Pakistan’s toughest climates. The product is designed to stay stable in warehouses, industrial zones, and open-air storage yards.
AR-AFFF 3% by SILVER STRING CHEMICALS is trusted in:
Oil & gas facilities
