The invention provides an aqueous foaming composition, an expanded foam composition and a process of forming a foam composition concentrate. The aqueous foaming composition comprises a carbonised saccharide mixture, a surfactant, water and optionally further agents including thickeners, solvents, stabilisers, buffers, corrosion inhibitors and preservatives. Foaming compositions of the present invention are particularly suitable for use in fire prevention, suppression and extinguishment, vapour suppression and wetting of surfaces. |
