Draw the line with PHOS-CHeK
The Phos-Chek name has been synonymous with world-class fire fighting chemicals for over forty years. The people at Phos-Chek have been working in partnership with the USDA Forest Service and other international fire management agencies since the late 1950's to further the safety and effectiveness of aerially applied fire retardant technology. Our first Phos-Chek retardant product became available in 1962. As additional tools for the fire manager, in 1988 we introduced Phos-Chek WD 881 Class A foam and in 2005 Phos-Chek Aqua-Gel water enhancer. All of the Phos-Chek brand products have a long history of use aiding in effective fire suppression and are recognized world-wide for the excellent benefits they provide. We are committed to continuously providing fire managers and fire fighters with the safest, most effective, and environmentally friendly products available.
