We stock the complete line of Barricade Fire Gel Products that are compatible with our Portable and Permanent Wildfire Pump and Hose Systems. Barricade Fire Gel is a superabsorbent polymer fire retardant gel that has saved hundreds of homes during the California Wildfires. Note: The Barricade Fire Gel formulation is almost identical and is interchangeable with Thermo Gel (both of which are on the US Forest Service Qualified Products List QPL 5100-306B as Water Enhancers to be dropped from Fixed Wing Air-Tankers, Helicopters Buckets, and Ground Engines for Wildland Fire Management).
Barricade Fire Gel was the first liquid fire gel concentrate to be approved for use by the Forest Service that does not contain toxic chemical additives known as NPEs and petroleum distillate oils. Note: Other Long Term Fire Retardants like the infamous red colored retardant that's dropped from airplanes all over California contain phosphates, sulfate salts, and pesticides that have certain negative effects on the environment where they are dropped. Barricade is completely safe and can be used on houses, shake roofs, solar panels, decks, doors, windows, eaves, fences, outbuildings, sheds, dog houses, log piles, brush, shrubbery, trees, haystacks, cars, boats, grilles, LP and propane tanks. Barricade Fire Gel was discovered and then invented when it was observed that baby diapers did not burn in a dumpster fire.

According to a recent Home Builder's Guide to Construction in Wildfire Zones released by FEMA: "Polymer gels, Class A foam products, and other long-term fire retardants can be applied to structures prior to fire impingement and provide greater thermal protection than water alone."
