The UL-listed dry chemicals for fire extinguishers come in various packages including, a 1,000kg jumbo bag, 25 kg carton, 25kg woven bag, and 20kg plastic drum.


Product Features:

  • Good fluidity and Stability – comprises a dry free flowing and highly stable fire extinguishing composition. Excellent fluidity ensures the product is non-caking and water-repellent, making it suitable for a wide range of fires including class A, B, and C.

  • Excellent Performance – ammonium phosphate is one of the most effective fire-extinguishing agents. The product coats fuel, separating it from the oxygen in the air. It also interrupts the chemical reactions in the fire. This high extinguishing capacity makes the agent extremely effective against burning solids, liquids, and gasses.

  • Low moisture – very low moisture content makes the product quick, powerful, and efficient in extinguishing flames. It is also effective and safe for electrical fires (Class C).

  • Easy refill –the product is compact making for easy refills for both pressurized and cartridge-operated fire extinguishers.

  • Uses rigorously tested chemicals that are safe and non-toxic to humans and animals.

Precautions for Use the UL Listed Dry Chemicals

The mixing of different types of powders (such as ABC & BC) in to one powder, may cause powder caking & lumping, and the nigentro gas in cylinder will increase pressure to an unsafe level.

Certification of compliance:




What raw material is used when making ABC powder?


The primary raw materials used when making ABC powder include silicon dioxide, pigment, silicon oil, ammonium phosphate, etc.


What is the purpose of using silicon oil?

A.      Preventing moisture absorption;

B.      Improves fluidity;

C.      Increased fire extinguishing properties.



What is the highest temperature that ABC powder can withstand?


ABC powder can withstand temperatures ranging from -30C-60C.


Which types of fires can ABC powder be applied to?


Class A fires, Class B fires, Class C fires.


What chemical reaction occurs when you mix ABC powder with an organic solution or other types of solutions, including water?


Mixing ABC powder with organic solutions destroys the silicon oil surrounding the particles. Adding water to the mixture causes the ABC powder to cake because it absorbs the water particles or moisture.



Can you mix BC powder with ABC powder in the same extinguisher?


ABC powder's main component is acidic ammonium phosphate, while that of BC powder is alkaline sodium bicarbonate. Mixing the two powders will cause them to lump up or cake, and the resultant gas could increase the fire extinguisher’s internal pressure. The fire extinguisher may rupture and blow when the increase in pressure becomes significant, and this could lead to damaged property or bodily harm.



How does Macro manage its product's quality control?


Macro conducts quality control throughout each step of the process, including sourcing raw materials and inspecting finished products. For instance, we sample each batch of raw materials for making ABC powder, ensuring it has the correct particle size and moisture content.

Next, we sieve test the semi-finished product during production and test for color and bulk density. The finished product's primary chemical content, hygroscopicity, and water repellency is also inspected.

The steel sheet's thickness is also tested when making fire extinguisher cylinders and inspect the neck ring’s thread. Our team test the semi-finished cylinder for leakage after welding and polishing it. Lastly, we also test for the cylinder's burst pressure and the thickness of the paint.



What makes Macro different?


Macro has been a professional OEM/ODM supplier of ABC powder for leading companies in over 20 countries. Our employers are valuable, and we aim to create a good workplace where employees are treated with respect, fairness, and dignity. We also listen to the market and place customers at the center of our services.
