The A Foam Authority Calls For New Membership

The A Foam Authority is a non-profit organization with a mission to promote the development, establishment, improvement and expansion of the use of Class A foam in fire suppression and to provide Class A foam education.

“We are currently seeking new membership in several categories, including end-user, dealer, and manufacturer,” said Keith Klassen, President of the organization. “Interested end-users within the fire service can now sign-up for membership at no charge, for a limited time. We highly urge any like-minded individual who is currently engaged in promoting, or would like to promote, the use of Class A foam to become a full member of the organization,” said Klassen.

New members can choose to become actively involved with the organization. The A Foam authority has Membership, Technical, Marketing and Education committees currently accepting new members.
More information about the A Foam Authority including a membership application can be found on its website at afoam.org.
