The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 1.6% and is anticipated to reach around USD 134 Million by 2026.
Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) Fire Extinguishing Agent is a fire suppressant and it works by cooling the fire and coating the fuel responsible for the fire. A film is created by AFFF between fuel and oxygen to stop the further combustion of the fuel. There were two types of firefighting foams developed in the 1980s to fight wildfires and were classified as class A and class B type of foams. Class B foam includes an aqueous film-forming foam, protein form, and alcohol-resistant aqueous film-forming foam. Synthetic surfactants are used to make aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF).

The rising implementation of aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF)fire extinguishing agents across various industries as compared to other firefighting agents is driving the forming foam (AFFF)fire extinguishing agent market. Various government policies, rules, and initiatives to use a fire extinguisher in government bodies, commercial sectors, and industries have set healthy market conditions for the aqueous film forming foam (AFFF)fire extinguishing agent market.
Moreover, aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) is widely used in U.S. Military opening new market opportunities for international companies. However, the adverse health-related and environmental effects of AFFF has hindered the market growth. This is due to the release of the AFFF solution reaching water bodies and contaminating it due to its toxicity.
The aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF)fire extinguishing agent market is divided into different segments based on type and application. The type segment is divided into three categories that are 1%, 3% and 6% based on the concentration. This percentage of concentration is based on the concentration mixed with water. AFFF is used as either 3 percent or 6 percent concentrate in the U.S. military and in most civil applications around the globe.
Regional Overview:
North America had a major market share in the global aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) fire extinguishing agent market and is anticipated to continue its dominance in the upcoming years. The product was mainly used for military applications in the United States and is expected to follow the same trends in the forecast years.
Furthermore, the Asia Pacific regional market is expected to grow rapidly due to the growing demand for aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) fire extinguishing agents. The government is undertaking numerous measures to safeguard firefighters, which is the reason behind the increasing demands for fire safety. However, slow and steady growth is expected from Europe due to the strict regulations.
