Pressbox (Press Release) - PRESS RELEASE

World’s first edible and Halal fire extinguisher and retardant:


When food comes in contact with fire control chemicals such as foam, powder, halons or even water it may be contaminated and no longer edible or halal, therefore it is lost. Large quantities of rice, corn, maize and other foodstuffs are stored and shipped where there is a danger of fire. Should a fire take place even the food in containers and bags, which are not saturated with water or foam and perhaps even undamaged may no longer be edible as Halal food.

It is now possible to protect all foods whether open in kitchens with an edible and Halal fire retarding and extinguishing foam, or to spray with the foam whilst the food is packed and in storage and make it non- flammable and fire retarded.

The extinguishing retardant and foam can be supplied in powder form, which dissolves easily in water and can be sprayed on to the stored food; alternatively it can be filled into current foam, water or powder fire extinguishers.

Company Chairman Cyril Glass said “ millions of pounds of foodstuffs is lost each year due to contamination by non halal products or fires, our new product is also cheaper than the range of products currently used”

Glomet chemicals are currently in the process of looking for exclusive wholesale and agency agreements.
