SEA-FIRE PARTICIPATES IN PRESIDENTIAL ROUNDTABLE

 

Ernie Ellis, president of Sea-Fire Marine, participated in a roundtable discussion hosted by President George W. Bush on October 6. It was held at the FedEx Express DCA facility in Washington, D.C. The event included U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, Henry Paulson, and Assistant to the President for Economic Policy, Al Hubbard, along with several other business leaders representing small to mid-size growth industries throughout the region. Distinguished by their success in international trade, the attending entrepreneurs were issued special invitations from the White House. Each was given an opportunity to review their company history and respond to questions from the President. The focus of the discussion was jobs and the economy, with emphasis on the entrepreneurial spirit and global commerce. "We have just met with a handful of small business owners, business creators, people who had an innovative idea, followed up on their idea and have now built healthy little businesses that are growing and employing people," said President Bush. Ellis outlined Sea-Fire's history, their international presence and recent expansion into the Pacific Asia market. He also expressed an interest in the current administration relaxing regulations and opening up the market with China. In 2004, Sea-Fire received the Presidential E-Award for excellence in exporting. The most distinguished honor bestowed by the federal government in recognition of an American exporting company, this award commends competitive achievements in world markets, and specifically Sea-Fire's part in increasing U.S. exports abroad. "I was honored to have the opportunity to meet and discuss my company with the President," said Ellis. "It was a most rewarding experience to sit around the table with several other businesses and communicate our views." To conclude the discussion, the President shared good news about the economy and spoke about the government's role in facilitating business expansion into foreign markets. "One of the jobs of government is to make sure the entrepreneurial spirit is strong, creating an environment that encourages entrepreneurship, which means low taxes, less regulation, rational spending at the government level [and] opening markets overseas so that the entrepreneur can trade," said President Bush. With over 30 years experience, Sea-Fire is a world leader in marine fire suppression technology. Sea-Fire's FM-200 fire extinguishers and suppression systems are recognized worldwide for their innovation and quality, providing cost-effective fire protection for craft ranging from PWCs to megayachts.

 

 

STINGER RECEIVES USCG AND CE APPROVALS AFTER RIGOROUS TESTING

 


  When a boating fire breaks out, reaching the blaze isn't always possible, but extinguishing it can be. The Stinger series from Sea-Fire Marine with patented Firetrace tubing protects areas of a craft that are typically difficult to access. It recently received USCG and European Community (CE) approvals in response to extensive product testing.
Stinger units are self-activating fire suppression systems designed to protect compartments from 25 to 175 cubic feet in volume. Available in six models, they are ideal for engine compartments and ancillary protection in hard to reach sections of vessels, such as bow thruster compartments, wiring harness consoles and flammable liquid storage cabinets.
Stinger systems recognize when ambient temperatures rise above 175°F in the protected area, activating the high-tech Firetrace tubing. The tube ruptures, forming a small nozzle that directs FM-200, an environmentally responsible clean extinguishing agent, at the source of the fire. No residue is left after discharge.
Sea-Fire's Stinger series are easily installed and need no external power for activation, so they're not affected by power outages or shutdowns. All models in the series include cylinder mounting bracket, two bulkhead adapters, six tubing mounting brackets and installation instructions.
