Confirmation of leading edge Zenova FX extinguishers compliance
and inaugural order in Germany
Zenova Group PLC (AIM: ZED) , the innovative fire suppression
and interdiction solutions Company, is pleased to provide an update
on the progress of its market-leading Zenova FX fire extinguisher
range:
-- PFAS free
Zenova FX extinguishing fluids were independently tested and
analysed by a third-party chemist in the USA for PFAS (Per- and
Polyfluorinated Substances). This analysis confirmed that the
Zenova FX fluid is fully compliant with existing EU standards and
regulations and that any trace elements of PFAS are well below the
current standards. Additionally, these tests confirmed that the
fluid is also compliant with all regulations banning PFOS
(Perfluoro octane sulfonic acid) and PFOA (Per Fluor Octanoic
Acid).
The Directors of Zenova believe that this makes the Zenova FX
range of extinguishers the most effective fire extinguishers with
the smallest environmental chemical impact.
-- Successful Government and Fire Industry demo
Zenova recently demonstrated the capabilities of its Zenova FX
range of fire extinguishers to a group of leading UK Government and
Fire Industry experts captured in the accompanying video. These
demonstrations were conducted with the guidance of The Fire Service
College, a division of FTSE 100 company Capita PLC, and leading
training agency.
The Zenova FX extinguishers performed exceptionally well dealing
with a large diesel test fire conducted on a 233B tray that
normally holds 200L of diesel. The Zenova team used a 9L
extinguisher and put out the fire using only a third of its fluid,
while the Fire Service consultants confirmed that two 9L competitor
products are often not sufficient to put out a fire this size.
Another highlight of the day's demos was the Group's FX500 mastery
in extinguishing class A fires and in particular, magnesium fires.
A thermal imagining camera was used during that effort, and it
showed the affected area's temperature plummet from 500 degrees
centigrade to just 10 degrees, in seconds. A magnesium fire was the
closest the consultants could get to reproducing the conditions of
a lithium battery fire.

What further impressed the industry experts was that the Zenova
FX extinguishers do not require elaborate post-usage clean-up,
which is particularly attractive to firefighter health and safety,
and that using Zenova FX eliminates the ignition risk as surfaces
dropped quickly below ignition temperature.
-- Inaugural order from Germany
Zenova is pleased to announce that they have received a
preliminary order for 100 units of Zenova FX fire extinguishers
from a large strategic client in Germany.
The client was particularly impressed with the capabilities of
the Zenova FX range and is planning to roll out these extinguishers
for multiple locations across Germany which will result in further
larger orders for Zenova from this market.
Thomas Melchior, CEO of the Zenova Group , commented, "The
recent Government and industry product demonstration, as well as
the independent PFAS testing, reinforces our view of the specific
performance capabilities of our Zenova FX extinguisher products and
our ability to demonstrate that in the marketplace.
This initial order from Germany is just the first step in
gaining market penetration and we are confident sales successes
should follow on from the increasing market profile of the Zenova
FX series."

About Zenova Group PLC
The Group, through Zenova Ltd, is the holder of intellectual
property that underpins a suite of fire safety and temperature
management products and technology. The product range is applicable
to industrial, commercial, and residential markets. The Group's
products include fire retardant paints, insulating paints and
render, fire extinguishing fluid and fire extinguishers. Through
innovative development, and a refined formulation and development
process, Zenova provides industry leading solutions across a range
of fire protection and temperature management problems,
comprising:
Zenova FP, fire protection paint
A water based, fire protection paint (also known as a
'thermofoaming' or 'intumescent' paint), which can be used on any
surface and colour matched to any colour. When exposed to heat or
flames, the paint expands and creates a solid foam-like crust which
will not burn and insulates the surface it is painted on. This
prevents surfaces from catching fire and stops fire spreading. It
has been tested by global fire industry experts and complies with
UK building regulations and the latest UK and European fire safety
standards.
Zenova IP, thermal insulation paint
A thermal insulation paint embeds the most modern insulating
technology in a thermos-like ultra-thin layer. It saves energy by
increasing the thermal insulation level in commercial and
residential buildings. Solar heat can increase the temperature
within a building by 75% to 90%. Zenova IP has been independently
tested and validated to deflect, absorb and dissipate up to 75% of
this heat, thereby reducing the inside temperature by up to 45%.
Suitable for both exterior and interior, on any type of surface
Zenova IR, thermal insulation render
Zenova IR is a ready mixed insulation render that can be applied
to internal and external walls in commercial and residential
buildings to provide immediate insulation benefits and can be
colour matched to any colour.
Zenova FX, fire extinguishers
A fire extinguisher like no other. It puts out class A, B, F, E
fires fully tested against European EN3 as well as British
standards. Available in 6 and 9 litre sizes.
Zenova FX500, aerosol fire extinguisher
The Zenova FX500 is a high-performance handheld fire
extinguisher that is tested by independent experts and adheres to
the highest industry standards. Safe for use on any type of fire
the Zenova FX500 reduces the risk of reignition. The Zenova FX 500
is quick, easy and safe to operated and has been tested to BS6165
standard.
Zenova WB, wildfire barrier
A wildfire barrier fluid (applied via spray wands or aerial
drops), which provides a virtual barrier where fire simply will not
burn. Repeated tests on a variety of extremely dry wildfire fuels
(grasses, hays, brush) demonstrates the incredible fire resistance
Zenova WB provides, while remaining viable after application for30+
days in dry conditions.
