Foam is additionally useful for items such as carpets or soft furnishings that may continue to smoulder for some time. The foam is not toxic and will help to prevent a fire from reigniting. Wet chemical extinguishers utilise a combination of pressurised Wet Chemical water and different salts. Wet chemical varieties are particularly useful on fat or oil in a kitchen and can also be used on the aforementioned Class A fires (wood, paper or textiles).
