SANTA CLARA COUNTY FIRESAFE COUNCIL AND KOMODO FIRE SYSTEMS ANNOUNCE STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP TO RESELL KOMODO’S PROFESSIONAL-GRADE FIRE PREVENTION AND SUPPRESSION TECHNOLOGY
Partnership Enables Nationwide Sales of Komodo’s Ready-to-Use (RTU) and
FireReady911 Solutions, Certified by the US Forest Service, USDA, and CAL FIRE
May 12, 2025, Saratoga, CA— The Santa Clara County FireSafe Council (SCCFSC), an independent 501(c)3 nonprofit, and Komodo Fire Systems announced today their partnership and reseller agreement for Santa Clara County FireSafe Council to provide residents and businesses with the ability to procure Komodo’s’ extensive suite of fire suppression and mitigation solutions to protect vegetation, homes and structures from wildfire. Komodo's fire prevention systems have been developed to address a decades-long industry challenge to provide a truly safe and sustainable solution. The company has proven that its product efficacy is second to none, and it’s non-toxic, plant & water-based formula will be critical to keeping first responders, people, property and animals safe and healthy.
FireReady911 is a fully integrated and calibrated turn-key system that enables clients to quickly and seamlessly create a defensible space by applying Komodo’s federally approved plant-based Fire Suppressant & Retardant to surrounding vegetation and structures. Komodo is certified by USDA and US Forest Service as environmentally safe for people, plants, animals, and aquatic life. Komodo is at least 20 times more effective than water, while being non-toxic, non-corrosive, and non-carcinogenic.
How FireReady911 Works: At the first pre-evacuation notice of an oncoming wildfire, property owners activate the FireReady911 system to blanket their properties and surrounding vegetation with Komodo’s advanced solution. This proactive measure creates a substantial “fire break,” that will halt the spread of fire by depriving it of combustible fuel.
Applying Komodo to structures also aids against ignition, improving its chances of surviving a devastating fire. The advanced next generation engineered solution is designed for total coverage in minutes for ultra-fast response and timely evacuation.
According to Seth Schalet, CEO of the Santa Clara County FireSafe Council, “As we continue to build out our portfolio, incorporating Komodo’s products gives our clients the ability to prepare in advance, by taking proactive defensible space measures to reduce the risk of structure loss from wildfire. With easy to use, non-toxic and environmentally safe retardant solutions, it is easy for homeowners to secure their perimeter and structures through the application of Komodo, and if evacuation is necessary, utilize the FireReady911 system to have peace of mind that their home has been secured to lower the risk of catastrophic structure loss. This meets the Santa Clara County FireSafe Council’s mission of protecting homes, communities and the environment from wildfires.”
Shawn Sahbari, President & CEO of Komodo Fire Systems said “Komodo is thrilled to partner with Santa Clara County FireSafe Council, one of the preeminent organizations in the country. As a true leader helping clients throughout California, we consider this a tremendous step forward. We know that FireReady911 and other portfolio products could have saved more homes in the recent LA fires, and we hope our partnership with SCCFSC will help communicate next generation solutions to all residents and organizations.”
