Protecting What Matters Most for Motorsports

The only thing on the track faster than a racecar is the race to extinguish a fire. In driver compartments and engines, fires burn fast and hot. Being unprepared to handle a class B fire emergency can be devastating. For professional drivers and their crews, as well as weekend racing enthusiasts, human safety is critical. In pits and garages, having a reliable, safe and effective fire suppression system is essential. Lose the race against fire and you lose a high-value asset, your livelihood, and possibly even lives. 

Traditional fire extinguishing agents such as water and dry chemicals can cause damage to engines and high-value equipment and contribute to downtime. The DuPont family of fire extinguishants provides exceptional alternatives. They are safe for people, electronically nonconductive, noncorrosive and free of residue.

Protecting racecars and their drivers is what matters most--to you and to us.

Operations can resume as soon as fire damage is repaired, allowing for minimal business interruption.
