What ingredients are in fog fluid?

Professional fog fluid consists of purified water and food-grade or pharmaceutical-grade glycols, typically propylene glycol or glycerin. These ingredients are classified as safe for human exposure by international health authorities and meet DAB (German Pharmacopoeia) or USP (United States Pharmacopeia) standards. The fluid contains no oils, no combustion by-products, and no toxic additives. When heated, the glycols vaporise and condense into harmless aerosol droplets that create the visual fog effect. Always choose certified fluids to ensure ingredient purity and avoid health risks.

Can I make fog fluid myself?

No, you should never attempt to make fog fluid yourself. Professional formulations are precisely calibrated for viscosity, glycol ratio, and purity. Homemade mixtures can damage your fog machine's heater element and pump, produce wet aerosol that creates slip hazards, or release harmful fumes when heated. Additionally, incorrect glycol concentrations may cause throat irritation or equipment malfunction. Always use certified fog fluid from reputable manufacturers such as Eurolite, Showtec, or Antari to protect your investment and ensure safe operation.

Is fog fluid safe for fire brigade training?

Yes, professional fog fluid formulated for fire brigade training is completely safe when used correctly. Training-grade fluids meet DAB or USP certification standards and contain only pharmaceutical-grade propylene glycol and glycerin. These ingredients produce non-toxic aerosol that replicates the visual density of real smoke without the harmful combustion by-products. Always ensure adequate ventilation after training exercises, brief participants on the nature of the artificial fog, and never aim the fog machine directly at people. Heavy fog formulations are ideal for zero-visibility scenarios in smoke houses and training buildings.

Which fog fluid creates the densest smoke?

Extra heavy fog fluid (also called Heavy Fog Plus) creates the densest smoke with the longest duration. This formulation is designed for large venues, outdoor stages, and fire brigade training, where maximum visual density is required. When used with a high-output fog machine (2000–3000 W) and a fan, extra heavy fluid can fill a hall or training building within seconds and remain visible for 15–20 minutes or more. Standard consumption is 40–50 ml per minute at full output. Brands such as Eurolite, Showtec, and Antari offer certified extra heavy formulations in 5-litre containers.

Can I use any fog fluid in any machine?

No, you must always use the fog fluid recommended by your fog machine's manufacturer. Professional machines are calibrated for specific viscosities and glycol ratios. Using incompatible fluid can clog the heater element, damage the pump, or produce wet aerosol that leaves slippery residue on floors. Check your machine's manual for the approved fluid type, and stick to reputable brands such as Eurolite, Showtec, BeamZ, or Antari. If you are unsure which fluid is compatible, contact LTT's technical support team for advice before making a purchase.

What does a 5-litre container of fog fluid cost?

A 5-litre container of professional fog fluid typically costs between €40 and €75, depending on the formulation and brand. Quick-dissolving and medium-lasting fluids are usually priced at €8–12 per litre, while premium heavy fog and extra heavy variants cost €10–15 per litre. Bulk purchases (20-litre drums) offer savings of up to 30 % per litre and are ideal for touring companies, fire brigade training centres, and permanent installations. At LTT, you will find certified fog fluids from leading manufacturers at competitive prices, with free shipping on orders over €69.

Which fog fluid should I buy for a small club?

For a small club (up to 200 m²), choose quick-dissolving or medium-lasting fog fluid. These formulations clear within 5–10 minutes, preventing the venue from becoming overwhelmed with fog and reducing the risk of triggering smoke alarms. A 1000–1500 W fog machine paired with a 5-litre container of standard fluid will provide several hours of intermittent use. Brands such as Eurolite and Showtec offer reliable quick-dissolving formulations that deliver punchy effects without lingering too long. Avoid heavy fog in confined spaces, as it can obscure visibility and create an uncomfortable atmosphere.
