CFR Protects What Matters Most
Mission-engineered for the future of aerial firefighting.
Because when lives are on the line — Every Drop Counts.
Wildfires Evolved.
Aircraft Evolved.
Retardant Didn’t
Wildfires have grown faster, larger, and more destructive. Aircraft advanced to meet the threat. But, the chemicals they carried stayed frozen in time. Retardant never evolved, until now. CFR was built on the fireline, not in a lab.
Engineered for today’s missions and tomorrow’s challenges.
Born from Hard Lessons
After two devastating accidents, we understood the stakes in a way few ever could. Flying wasn’t enough – the tools we were given had to be safer, stronger, and smarter. On the front lines, out of necessity, CFR was born.
A new class of retardant created to protect crews, aircraft, and the communities we serve.

Mission-Engineered for Modern Wildfires
CFR Connected
Smart Bases
Cloud-based system tracks retardant, connects bases, and communicates with the aircraft.
Adaptive
Blending
CFR Smart Bases customize every load to match fire behavior, terrain, and weather.
Smarter
Ground Ops
Faster mixing, mission-specific readiness, fewer delays.
Protecting What Matters Most
CFR is more than a retardant.
It’s a frontline commitment. Built from hard lessons, proven on the fireline, it represents the future of aerial firefighting.
Where performance is mission-critical, safety is non-negotiable, and every drop, every mission, every life counts.
