Installation of OFB CAF System at Major Tyre Warehouse in Brisbane

In February 2008, an OFB CAF system was retrofitted to a fire sprinkler system in a major tyre factory/warehouse in Brisbane, Australia. This makes it the first installed Compressed Air Foam fire-fighting system  which has met all the requirements of all Australian and International Standards.

OFB CAFS puts out real fire at truck accident tragedy

It so happened that on the way back from the official testing in Melbourne, the OFB team encountered a tragedy in which a truck had crashed and was on fire. The Queensland Fire and Rescue, lacking adequate nearby water supplies, had not been able to extinguish the fire for over 4 hours. They graciously permitted the OFB team to use the CAFS system to attack the fire. The fire was out in SIX MINUTES.
