Introducing Anogas Hydrogel
The World's Safest Li-ion Fire Extinguishing Agent
When it comes to fire protection, the old solutions come with serious trade-offs — toxic chemicals, environmental damage, and agents that can be dangerous to the very people using them. Anogas Hydrogel changes all of that.
Developed using modified natural clay and water, Hydrogel is a revolutionary fire extinguishing agent that contains zero PFAS and carries a carbon footprint of less than 0.7%. It's not just better for the planet — it's classified as non-hazardous to humans under the most stringent European chemical laws, with no skin irritation or toxic decomposition products.
What makes Hydrogel truly stand out is its versatility and performance. Its temperature-sensitive gel formation means it transforms from a low-viscosity fluid into a viscous, adhesive substance as heat increases — keeping maximum cooling power right at the fire source. It's effective across a broad range of fire classes — solids, fats, and critically, lithium-ion battery fires.
For lithium-ion battery fires, Hydrogel acts as a thermal runaway blocker — rapidly dropping temperatures and preventing the chain reaction from spreading to nearby cells. As e-bikes, EVs, and battery-powered devices become part of everyday life, this capability is more important than ever.
With a service life of over 10 years and safe, eco-friendly disposal at end of life, Hydrogel is as practical as it is responsible.
Safe for people. Safe for the planet. Proven on the fire.
Aston Safety Technologies holds the exclusive distribution rights for Anogas Hydrogel products across Australia and New Zealand, bringing this next-generation technology to the region's most demanding industries.

The unique characteristics of Hydrogel make it an ideal solution for extinguishing lithium-ion battery fires. Experts recognise these fires and the resulting toxic fumes as a life-threatening risk — a dangerous side effect of the energy transition over the last decade.
With lithium-ion batteries causing hazardous fires every day, Hydrogel provides a highly effective method for extinguishing them and mitigating these risks.
