The value of historical vessels is priceless! These contribute to the national historical identity of any given country. In most cases, timber is the main structural element. Therefore, the risk of a �re is more likely. Conventional and passive �re protection systems only increase this risk.

Ultra Fog specialises in optimised solutions, o�ering quick release, reliable �re suppression using the safest (non-toxic), most environmentally friendly and readily available extinguishing medium on the market today: water. This highly sophisticated watermist technology uses an extremely reduced quantity of water and rapid cooling e�ect which will control and extinguish �re quickly. Ultra Fog’s enhanced performance systems are particularly suited to historical vessels for several key reasons: �re or water damage is reduced to an absolute minimum; the use of water rather than corrosive extinguishants protects the integrity of the historical infrastructure; post-�re downtime is kept to a minimum. Most importantly the slimline, lightweight piping, and aesthetically designed nozzles, lend themselves to easy installation (especially when retro�tting older vessels) and minimises the visual impact of the system.

Ultra Fog systems are type approved for all areas of the vessel: Engine Room and Machinery Spaces, Weapons Storage, Garage, Accommodation Areas, Galleys and Fat Fryers. International warranties and aftersales support is an integral part of the Ultra Fog scope of supply.

Protecting an historical vessel, its crew, passengers and cargo from �re is paramount
