Large air tankers
Smaller Single Engine Air Tankers (SEATs)
Helicopters using buckets
Firefighters on the ground using fire engines
Barricade ® II is the first and only liquid fire gel concentrate(LC) that has been approved for use by the Forest Service that does not contain toxic chemical additives known as Nonylphenol Ethoxylates (NPEs) and petroleum distillate oils.
NPE-Free Barricade® II Fire Gel is available in quantities up to 275-Gallon totes. Barricade® II is generally used in aerial applications at concentrate/water mixes of 1% and lower. Therefore, 275 gallons of the LC will produce at least 27,500 gallons of fire suppressant/retardant.
Barricade® II is effective in both direct attack and retardant situations. Barricade® II LC can be mixed with water in standard SEAT support trailer equipment, batch mixed, or by eduction.
Experience has shown that application of Barricade to valuable infrastructure is warranted during wildfires . Bridges, roadside railings, power poles, etc. can be protected to ensure exit routes for fire crews.
