Overview

We at LaderaTECH are developing new approaches and technologies for the prevention of wildfire. Our FORTIFY™ retardant technology can be used to stop wildfires before they start. FORTIFY™ can be deployed at sites of particularly high fire danger for the entire duration of a fire season, providing a protective barrier that can prevent a vast number of wildland fires from starting in the first place. FORTIFY™ is powered by VISMOTECH™, an environmentally-benign hydrogel platform made from renewable resources. FORTIFY™ can be deployed using standard equipment for simple application to a diverse array of target fuels and enable season-long retention of polyphosphate retardants. This approach is impossible with current technologies.
