Vancouver, BC, Canada (March 29, 2024) — SkyScout Ai Innovations Inc., a platform using satellites and drones to detect and stop wildfires, is delighted to announce it has been granted an exclusive license from California-based Mighty Fire Breaker to distribute Citrotech®, a first-of-its-kind fire inhibitor, in Canada.
Citrotech®, a non-toxic and non-carcinogenic fire inhibitor that prevents and puts out wildfires, is certified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Safer Choice Program and is a recipient of the EPA Partner of the Year Award in 2023. It is a breakthrough fire inhibitor that can also pre-treat structures and land to protect them before a wildfire occurs.
SkyScout Ai, will deploy Citrotech® in its Tanker Drones™ to put out inception spot fires within minutes of their detection. Skyscout Ai’s mobile units can pre-position its fleets of surveillance, heat-detection and payload-carrying drones in wildfire risk zones to pre-treat land and property during periods of elevated wildfire threat.
SkyScout Ai and Citrotech® will be ready for Canada’s 2024 wildfire season.
"This partnership is a significant milestone in our mission to protect lives, property, and the environment from the devastating effects of wildfires," said Shepherd. “We will be using Citrotech® in support of overall wildfire mitigation efforts and also supplying it to those in Canada for enhanced protection from wildfires.”
Added Conboy: "SkyScout Ai's technology, combined with Citrotech®, will provide an unparalleled level of fire defense. Laboratory and field tests have shown Citrotech® mitigates the risk of wildfires and can prevent forest fuels and structures from catching fire. Best of all, there are no toxic or carcinogenic chemicals in this product to harm firefighters.”
Citrotech® is the only wildfire inhibitor recognized by the EPA’s Safer Choice Pollution Prevention program, which recognizes products and practices that reduce, eliminate, or prevent pollution.
Mighty Fire Breaker™ has tested its Citrotech® Fire Inhibitor product on numerous structure and wildfire conditions. Fire departments in California, following extensive testing and trials, are starting to adopt this new, safer technology. Citrotech® has accreditation with UL GreenGuard Gold, UL LENS certification and is listed as non-toxic, non-hazardous to meet California’s Prop 65 in support of their Clean Water Act.
