Lluvia Sólida
Lluvia Sólida is a potassium-based granular powder. This powder is also degradable, non-soluble and non-toxic, which, when in contact with water, expands and can adsorb up to 400 times its weight in water, and can act as a fire-breaking stream. Due to its characteristics and proven experience, it is foreseen that, by dropping it from the air, it would achieve the objective of extinguishing fires, as an alternative to existing methods. This product can be used to rehabilitate damaged areas, increasing the survival rate of reforested trees by 60%.

Secalflor SUR
Secalflor SUR manufactures and distributes planting panels composed of 100% natural raw materials: mineral salts, starches and cellulose fibres. These panels favour the rooting and growth of plants and vegetation in extreme weather conditions and in very deteriorated soils, among other causes due to fires. The components of the panels help to keep the soil moist, making it more fertile thanks to the mineral salts incorporated in the manufacturing process and generating more biomass.

Scodev
Scodev is capable of adapting non-amphibious aircraft so that they can load water in mid-flight and unload it over areas affected by forest fires. This system makes it possible to load tankers over all types of water surfaces, whether sea, rivers, lakes or canals, flying over them at an altitude of 10 to 15 meters. The water discharge rate of non-amphibious aircraft is increased from 1 to 5 discharges per hour and, in addition, the extinguishing efficiency over the affected area is 8 times higher than average, which prevents forest fires from becoming uncontrollable.
