("Zenova", the "Company" or the "Group")
Company's Extinguishers Excel
at Major Product Testing Event in Palma, Mallorca
Zenova Group PLC (AIM: ZED), the innovative fire suppression and
interdiction solutions Company, is pleased to update the market on
the continued successful outperformance of its sector-leading
products in sponsored demonstrations conducted by and for fire
prevention professionals and consumer groups.
The latest superb demonstration of
Zenova product capabilities was held late last week in Palma,
Mallorca featuring its fully EN-certified fire extinguishers, and
was organised by Gabriel Coll, the head of EZ International, the
Group's recent sub-distributor signee covering the Iberian
Peninsula and South America. Before a large gathering
of fire industry experts, academics, press, and especially,
multiple potential customer groups, Graham Sargent, the Company's
technical director, conducted a variety of difficult fire
simulations from multiple causes, and Zenova's extinguisher fluid
brought them all under control with the kind of speed and
efficiency with which stakeholders have become accustomed, but
which nevertheless greatly impressed the assembled audience of fire
experts.
Those various test demos can be seen
in the video linked below provided by the Spanish press as well as
EZ:

Gabriel Coll, head of sub-distributor EZ International
enthused, "The universally positive
response to Graham's thorough product demos in Palma have more than
confirmed my confidence in the superior capabilities of Zenova's
product suite as well as the commercial logic to create EZ
international and bring those products to a much wider audience
across the Latin American markets."
Thomas Melchior, CEO of the Zenova
Group, commented, "Engaging with ambitious and
well-connected sub-distributors like Gabriel and EZ is central to
Zenova's rapidly evolving business model. I would like to
personally thank Gabriel for organising the Palma demo day and
helping the Company demonstrate what its extinguisher fluid is
really capable of in front of such a wide, influential
audience. Given the direct and indirect responses we've
received already, I have no doubt our successful day in Mallorca
will result in commercial orders that we will soon be able to share
with the market."

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.
