About Us

Our mission at Xpyro Ltd is to help individuals, families, companies, organisations and therefore the entire society to live and work in a truly safer way, not just feel safer.

Our Story

The story of Xpyro Ltd started in 2006, when the Finnish Defense Forces were talking about a new kind of fire prevention substance. They needed an efficient and inexpensive way to extinguish fires in vast, remote areas where traditional firefighting methods are not sufficient. Our experts, who had dozens of years of experience in fire safety, took on the challenge and started to develop an innovative fire agent and system that would be suitable for even the most demanding conditions.

 

R&D is still at the heart of Xpyro. For us, innovation means meeting our customers’ needs by developing even more reliable, easy-to-use and cost-efficient firefighting systems – products that save lives and minimize material losses. One of the cornerstones of our research is to ensure that our products are safe for their users and for the environment.

 

Safety is one of the prerequisites of a good life. Our mission at Xpyro Ltd is to help individuals, families, companies, organizations and therefore the entire society to live and work in a truly safer way, not just feel safer.

How it Works

Scientific Innovation

Powered by research, our patented formula creates a chemical firebreak that resists ignition.

Eco-Conscious Design

Prefirex is non-toxic, residue-free, and acts as a post-activation fertilizer — safe for nature.

Compatible Deployment

Works with existing firefighting equipment, enabling rapid deployment and wide reach.

Born from Urgency, Built for Impact

XPYRO was founded in response to the rising frequency and intensity of global wildfires. Driven by a multidisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, and safety experts, we’ve developed Prefirex — a pioneering fire prevention agent that’s already protecting forests, homes, and lives across Europe.

Our approach is grounded in urgency and scaled for global impact.
