Home > Marioff is a global leader and innovator of high pressure water mist fire protection technology > Sprinkler vs HI-FOG®
Water is the oldest, most widely used and universally available fire fighting agent known to man. It is non-toxic, environmentally
friendly and, in addition, has superior fire protection capabilities when compared to every other agent.
This often has implications such as water damage in the protected spaces and the need
for a vast water supply due to the sheer amount of water required.
This automatically and justifiably creates concern among customers, as their valuable
assets, or in some cases their production, are placed at risk - not only from fire, but also
due to the fire protection system itself.

Fire Protection with the HI-FOG Water Mist
System
The HI-FOG® system is designed to both suppress and control fire, and its performance has consistently been proven to be better
than or equivalent to that of traditional sprinklers. Furthermore, the amount of water used is significantly less, which results in far
less water damage. What sets the HI-FOG® system apart from its competitors is the usage of micro-droplets, which represent water
in its most effective fire fighting form. Yet another advantage of the HI-FOG® fire protection system when set against traditional
sprinkler systems is that life cycle costs can be reduced due to its unique and intelligent design, which incorporates carefully-
selected and durable materials.
