JUPITER, Fla., Aug. 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- GelTech Solutions, Inc. (GLTC)



Announced today that FireIce High Visibility Orange, the signature product of its Wildland Fire Division, has been actively used by more than ten state and federal wildland firefighting agencies so far this season to fight over 100 fires in the U.S. and Canada. FireIce has been deployed in over 10 different types of aircraft for both initial attack, extended attack and large fire operations. It has earned the praise of pilots, tanker base managers and wildland firefighters on the ground for its superior effectiveness, ease of use and environmental friendliness. FireIce HVOF also weighs significantly less per mixed gallon than other commonly used chemicals, enhancing the safety of pilots and their aircraft.

With this continued success, FireIce is quickly becoming the fire chemical of choice by wildland fire industry agencies as they recognize the performance and cost advantages of using FireIce over traditional fire-fighting chemicals.

"We are very pleased with the growth and adoption of FireIce in the wildland fire industry and have been fortunate to work with some outstanding agencies domestically and internationally," stated Matt Struzziero, GelTech's director of sales and operations. "The GelTech Wildland team is on the ground working with these agencies to ensure successful implementation of FireIce into their programs, which will ultimately help protect public and private lands, save agency fiscal resources, and better provide for the safety of the brave pilots and firefighters."
