What is APAR?
APAR, an acronym for Alat Pemadam Api Ringan (Light Fire Extinguisher), is a portable device designed to extinguish fires in their initial stages or small fires before they spread into large blazes. This device works by expelling an appropriate extinguishing agent (such as dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide, or foam) to remove one of the elements of the fire triangle (heat, fuel, oxygen). The presence of APAR is crucial in every building, both commercial and industrial, as it allows for a rapid response to fire incidents, minimizing property damage, and most importantly, protecting lives. APAR is an effective first line of defense and a mandatory safety standard.
As a product category, APAR has various derivative products classified by the type of extinguishing agent and the class of fire they can handle. The main derivative products include dry chemical powder APAR, which is versatile for various fire classes; carbon dioxide (CO2) APAR, ideal for electrical equipment without leaving residue; foam APAR, effective for Class A and B fires; and Halon Free or Clean Agent APAR, which is environmentally friendly and does not damage sensitive equipment. Each type of APAR is designed for specific fire scenarios, ensuring maximum extinguishing effectiveness.

Derivative Products of APAR
Dry Chemical Powder APAR
This type of APAR uses dry chemical powder as an extinguishing agent, which is a mixture of monoammonium phosphate and ammonium sulfate. Its main advantage is its ability to extinguish Class A (solid materials like wood, paper), B (flammable liquids like gasoline, oil), and C (electrical) fires. The powder works by interrupting the chemical reaction of the fire and forming a barrier that prevents oxygen from reaching the fuel. Dry chemical powder APAR is very versatile and is often the primary choice for general protection in various commercial and industrial facilities, including warehouses and production areas. We offer various sizes of dry chemical powder APAR which you can find on our brands page.
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) APAR
CO2 APAR contains carbon dioxide gas stored in a high-pressure liquid form. When released, CO2 expands into a cold, heavy gas, displacing oxygen from the fire area and cooling the fuel. This APAR is highly effective for Class B (flammable liquids) and C (electrical) fires, making it an ideal choice for server rooms, electrical panels, laboratories, and areas with sensitive electronic equipment. Its main advantage is that it leaves no residue after use, thus not damaging equipment and minimizing cleanup time.
Foam APAR
Foam APAR uses a mixture of water and foam concentrate (Aqueous Film-Forming Foam - AFFF) as an extinguishing agent. When sprayed, this foam forms a blanket layer over the fuel surface, cooling the fire and preventing contact with oxygen. Foam APAR is very effective for Class A (solid materials) and B (flammable liquids) fires, especially for fires involving water-insoluble liquids such as oil or gasoline. However, foam APAR is not recommended for Class C (electrical) fires because it contains water. This type of APAR is often used in fuel storage areas or petrochemical industries.
Halon Free / Clean Agent APAR
Halon Free APAR, also often called Clean Agent APAR, is an environmentally friendly alternative to Halon APAR, which has been banned due to ozone depletion. Extinguishing agents like FM-200, Novec 1230, or HFC-227ea work by absorbing heat from the fire and interrupting the chemical reaction of combustion without leaving residue. This APAR is highly suitable for Class B and C fires, and is very safe for sensitive electronic equipment, important archives, and control rooms. Its advantages include being non-corrosive, non-conductive, and requiring no cleanup after use, making it a premium choice for protecting valuable assets.
