LONGVIEW, Texas, March 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Summit Environmental Corporation, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: SEVT) announced today that the company has sold FlameOut(R), its unique fire suppression agent, to the Alabama Forestry Service.
In mid-February, Keith Parker, CEO of Summit, participated in a continuing education meeting in Montgomery, Alabama, at the headquarters of the Alabama Forestry Service. Present at the meeting was the Commissioner of Forestry, Forestry Service Fire Chief and each district director for the Alabama Forestry Service. The focus of the presentation was what makes FlameOut(R) different than the other products on the U.S. Forest Service QPL Listed products 5100-307.
Three distinct differences set FlameOut(R) apart from the others. FlameOut(R) is UL Listed for Class B fires with 162 in its listing, certifying FlameOut(R) as an encapsulator and emulsifier. This means that reignition is prevented once a fire is extinguished. This is especially important where the refueling of the equipment used in fighting the fires is concerned.
FlameOut(R) is non-corrosive, leaving valves and seals free from damage. FlameOut(R) can be stored in tanks and will not separate.
FlameOut(R) is the only non-toxic product on the approved listing, 5100-307. FlameOut(R) is listed as Category IV by the certification laboratories for dermal, eyewash, and acute oral toxicity testing. FlameOut(R) also possesses non-toxic ratings for the mammalian and aquatic standards. FlameOut(R) has a HMIS rating of 0-0-0-B.
Within a few weeks, FlameOut(R)’s application with the Federal Government – Group Service Administration (GSA) will be completed, giving FlameOut(R) a FSN (Federal Supply Number).
Assisting Summit in this endeavor is GSA Awards, Inc., a company specializing in application process completion. GSA Awards and Summit have a five-year contract where GSA Awards assists Summit in marketing through GSA Biz Ops once the application process is completed.
