When environmental pressures led to the phase-out of Halon 1211 – the most commonly used extinguishing agent at the time – Lifeline pioneered the use of Zero 2000, a lightweight, foam-based extinguishant.

But we didn’t stop there. Extensive research and development led to the Zero 360, a smaller and lighter range of extinguishers. The name reflects the system’s panoramic discharge range which, thanks to our unique nozzle design, produces a fire-smothering gas cloud that reaches even the most hidden corners of the engine bay. FK-5-1-12 is our clean agent suppressant of choice.

In response to the FIA’s latest standard for plumbed-in fire suppression systems – 8865-2015 – the Zero 275* was developed. Reflecting this standard’s significant advancements in both driver and vehicle safety requirements, it is substantially lighter, faster and more compact, making it one of the most advanced fire suppression systems in the world.

In 2022, the lighter and smaller Zero 2020 replaced the Zero 2000.
