    For several years now, NOVEC 1230 has served as the preferred gaseous fire suppression agent for protecting high-value archives, museums, and collections from the threat of fire. 3M, the manufacturer, recently announced that they will cease production of the NOVEC 1230 by 2025 due to the presence of PFAS chemicals in the product and manufacturing process.

    This free webinar will address the immediate impact of this announcement on collections that are currently protected with NOVEC 1230 and present alternatives such as water mist, inert gas, and hybrid systems. Learn how to effectively select a fire suppression strategy for your archives. This webinar takes place on July 20 at 3:00 p.m. CTRegister today!
