The safe handling of pyrotechnic devices such as flares and signal torches presents ongoing challenges for event organizers, security services, and stadium operators. Especially in football stadiums, arenas, and large event venues, fast, controlled and predictable extinguishing methods are essential to protect people, infrastructure, and operational processes.
SmoliTec has already addressed this topic in practical trials and real-world testing. During these tests, Extover® fire extinguishing granulate was used in 10-liter and 30-liter metal buckets, proving to be a robust and reliable solution for safely extinguishing pyrotechnic flares.
Proven principle: smothering instead of water-based extinguishing
Extover® works purely on a physical basis. The mineral granulate smothers the pyrotechnic device, cuts off oxygen supply, and significantly reduces heat release. Unlike water or foam, no hazardous reactions, splashing, or uncontrolled effects occur.
Advantages of the 10 L and 30 L metal bucket solution:
-
Immediate readiness for emergency use
-
Controlled extinguishing of flares and pyrotechnic devices
-
No chemical reactions and no re-ignition
-
High temperature resistance due to metal containers
-
Suitable for stadiums, security services, and event logistics
The 10-liter bucket is ideal for mobile security teams and stewards, while the 30-liter bucket serves as a stationary safety solution in entrances, concourses, or designated safety zones.
A practical, safety-focused solution
Previous tests and operational experience demonstrate that Extover® provides a reliable, easy-to-handle, and safe solution for dealing with pyrotechnic devices in sensitive environments. Wherever fast action without escalation is required, the system delivers clarity, control, and effectiveness.
SmoliTec continues to develop these solutions consistently – practical, industry-focused, and designed for maximum safety.
