IPL provides Fire Fighting Foam testing to help you determine the safety and compliance of your foams.

We offer a range of different firefighting foams testing such as AR AFFF, AR FFFP, FP, ATC RF & RF. The tests and limits required on foams are specified by the latest BS EN 1568-3:2008 and DEF(AUST)5706.

The test methods we offer are:
- pH
- Sediment
- Foam Expansion
- Drainage
- Specific Gravity

- Refractive Index.

As per industry best practices, your foams should be tested yearly. IPL can assist in establishing a yearly testing schedule.
