The FireBug Group designs and manufactures innovative water mist fire fighting equipment which enhances fire fighter safety, rapidly extinguishes fires and significantly reduces water consumption. The ST15 mist nozzle/branch/gun is revolutionizing the fire fighting industry. A fully developed car fire can be extinguished in under 30 seconds with less than 40 liters of water. Our water mist technology is also safe for electrical and fat/oil fires. Launched in November 2014, the ST15 mist nozzle is already being sold in 12 countries and we are rapidly expanding across the globe. Feel free to contact me for a demonstration in your country. We are expanding our global distributor network. Contact me to discuss distribution opportunities.

1. ST15; An evolution
in research and
development,
enhancing fire fighter
safety through science
and technology.
In collaboration with

3. • Developed, designed and manufactured in the UK by FireBug
• FireBug a leader in Water Mist Technologies
• 18 months of Research & Development in association with Staffordshire Fire & Rescue
• Launched in November 2014 making BBC news (type BBC eco nozzle into Google)
• In the first 4 weeks orders received from more than 8 countries

4. • Route to market is through Distributors & Fire Truck Builders globally
• Distributors resell mainly to Fire & Rescue, Volunteer Fire Services, Civil Defense and
Industrial Fire Services
• Distributorships both exclusive and non exclusive available subject to commitments,
guarantees & market positioning
• Marketing support offered to distributors in return for commitment of volume
• Markets are primarily developed and emerging markets where hose reels are used with
fire truck pump capacities of 40L to 150L @ 20 bar pressure.

6. • Droplet size ST15 Droplet size is unique in the Fire & Rescue market less than 100
micron allowing extinguishing ALL types of fires including oil and liquids, still has water
jet mode
• Perfect Kinetic energy
• Sufficient hang time to allow mist to convert to steam and evaporate cooling the fire
• 20 bar pressure
• Currently no known competitor globally is able to offer this current nozzles. Globally
typically have a smallest droplet size of + 250 microns not suitable for oil fires or liquid
fires.
• Smaller droplets have larger surface area for cooling
• Smaller droplets also are lighter in weight so usually float without having any distance
(throw) ST15 unique technology gives it a good through and gentleness unlike high
pressure nozzles
• ST15 fights the fire in the flame NOT on the surface like conventional nozzles

10. • Kinetic Energy + droplet size = efficient mist
• Small droplets = large surface area (heat absorption)
• Small droplets usually = no energy (floating)
• Large droplets too small surface area cant be effective, too wet and too heavy (sink to
floor) (water spray) Rely on surface wetting
• ST15 technology allows perfect energy, not to aggressive like high pressure

12. Process for Mist
<100 micron:
• Mist Enters flame
• Blocks radiant heat
• Converts to steam 1620:1
expansion & rises
• Does NOT wet surface
• Steam Inert Vapour (gas)
• Steam removes oxygen
• Cooling stops production of
free radicals
• 100% of mist is utilized to
extinguish and cool

13. Process droplets
From 250 micron - >1000 micron
• Large droplets fall to the surface and wet
the surface
• Cooling surface and fire
• Relying on wetting the surface
• Less than 50% of water is used to
extinguish remainder is wasted (run off)
Fire Water into drainage system
• Run off costs insurance and the user
Billions / year in unnecessary collateral
damage.
