GelTech Solutions New Fire Retardant Technology Makes Firefighting Planes More Efficient




JUPITER, FL--(March 25, 2016) - GelTech Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB: GLTC)



An innovator in the use of polymers for fire suppression and protection, reported today that Asia Pacific Fire Magazine, a quarterly journal written by leading fire prevention and firefighting professionals, has published an article about fixed-wing airtankers using FireIce in direct attack as a suppressant and as a retardant to effectively build fire lines. The benefits of using FireIce addressed in the article include:

  • Ability to use smaller, lighter aircraft, water scooping and single engine aircraft
  • Ability to penetrate dense forest canopies
  • Superior adhesion to vegetation (making it more resilient to preheating or ignition)
  • Portability and ease of setup and operation of airtanker retardant bases and reloading facilities
  • Environmentally friendly
  • Economical, using only one-tenth the concentrate of competitive products
  • 15-year shelf life

About FireIce

FireIce is an advanced, non-toxic, non-corrosive polymer that when hydrated produces a water-based fire retardant and suppressant. The eco-friendly properties of FireIce are especially important in sensitive and protected ecosystems, including that of the Sage Grouse. FireIce weighs significantly less than other commonly used chemicals, which enhances the safety of pilots and their aircraft.

It is also packaged as a one-part orange colorant, providing excellent visibility for both pilots in the air and firefighters on the ground. As a result of its demonstrated superior suppression performance, and with its versatility as a retardant to create a fire break and protect property, FireIce has quickly become the fire chemical of choice in many regions of the country.
