Environmental labels like "Milieukeur" in The Netherlands and "Blauen Engel" in Germany should assist clients to choose the right products for them. The environmental label is a guarantee for the user that the product bought is approved as environmentally friendly. Unfortunately the rules to receive an environmental approval do vary in each country. One problem is the fact that foam manufactures do not want to reveal their, carefully developed formulas or ingredients to outside sources. Despite the fact that alternative product tests at internationally recognized testing institutes, can prove conclusively, that products are highly biodegradable or non-toxic. Foam manufactures and the OEM's of fire extinguishers and/or other systems, are searching for acceptable, environmental alternatives to the existing products A number of years ago Bioversal International developed a range of environmentally friendly products. This first generation "Bioversal QF" Ecofoam, was the very first foam in the world that received the Dutch environmental label "Milieukeur" on an extinguisher. This environmental label was granted on the products high biodegradability & non-toxicity. It was safe for both the environment and the users. Bioversal QF extinguishes are multi-functional and clean up Hydrocarbons (oil) from the environment. |
