The blueprint behind the business strategy at MFB is to be the best in proactive, risk-reduction wildfire defense with MFB-31-CitroTech, an accredited chemistry that is listed in the EPA Safer Choice Program.

By adding smoke detection monitoring, now offer an even greater value in risk reduction because property owners can be notified sooner of a pending threat. They can then activate the systems and program sooner, well before the wildfire arrives on the property being defended.

Author's quote

Kristine Black, Director of Business Development at Nuvis Technologies is excited with the industry and technological partnership, and she commented: "We have a real chance to democratize wildfire management by offering a system that private land and luxury property owners can afford to use."

"As more areas are scanned by this solution, wildfire detection rates will rise, and early detection is the only key to prevent the widespread devastation caused by these ever-escalating, catastrophic wildfire events seen around the globe."

Risk assessment

Trained General Contractors install the system off roofs and slopes and train the property staff

The Smoke Detection Monitoring can notify the property owner early, so they can send out trained personnel to deploy atomizing cannons to spray the chemistry on underbrush, and 200 ft. up into trees, and create firebreaks at the property borders. 

It also allows the property owner to activate sprinkler systems to saturate the structure with chemistry, which blocks ember ignition and fire's ability to advance, even when the chemistry is bone dry. The program begins with a risk assessment. Then, the trained General Contractors install the system off roofs and slopes and train the property staff in the use of the cannon equipment.

NFPA and Fire Wise risk reduction

Green Proactive Wildfire Defense Program is out to defend Specialty Properties, Resorts, Historical Towns and even Animal Parks. What separates chemistry from firefighting foams, gels and fire retardants is that MFB-31-CitroTech can be stored on-site in large storage tanks, and it never needs re-blending: It is always ready to defend.

Big supporters of early evacuation and the NFPA and Fire Wise risk reduction and vegetation trimming. Just adding a second line of defense with systems, equipment and chemistry. Then, the trained staff on these properties means an even greater risk reduction is ready to react, which supports the lowest possible insurance premiums for property owners. California is the first state in the nation to require insurance premium discounts for property owners who have taken steps to mitigate their risk of loss to wildfire.
