CitroTech announced the expansion of its certified partner network from two to 13 organizations. The growth of this network over recent months is increasing access to proactive wildfire protection across several of North America's most fire-prone regions. "Effective prevention shouldn't come at the expense of the environment," said Kevin Schaff, Global Head of Business Development and Partnerships at CitroTech. "With our nontoxic, phosphate-free fire inhibitor, we're helping communities get ahead of risk in a safer, more responsible way. And by starting in the highest-risk areas, we're building a model for how wildfire prevention and asset protection can be done better."

CitroTech and All Risk Shield announced a strategic partnership under which All Risk Shield has selected CitroTech as its preferred fire inhibitor to treat residential, commercial, and estate properties across California. The decision follows independent testing by All Risk Shield to evaluate the leading fire retardant products used in wildfire mitigation. The testing compared the top five solutions on the market, to better understand product composition and evaluate factors relevant to environmental stewardship, occupational exposure considerations, and operational preferences.

CitroTech announced the continued expansion of its intellectual property portfolio, "reinforcing its position as the only company in wildfire prevention whose platform combines GPS-enabled verification of field applications with a network-connected infrastructure that stores coordinates to generate auditable records of mitigation activity," the company said. The company now holds 31 issued patents and 56 pending applications. At the core of this portfolio are GPS-enabled verification and geospatial tracking systems, wireless command-and-control technologies, and secure field documentation infrastructure that together enable real-time confirmation of where and when fire retardant treatments are applied, including across complex, geographically dispersed environments.
