HC Deb 19 November 1941 vol 376 c332W
Mr. Culverwell

asked the Home Secretary whether his Department has made any tests of the effectiveness of an anti-incendiary compound named Bommex; and, if so, with what results?

Mr. Mabane

A test of Bommex was made some months ago. It was then reported that Bommex gave no evidence of being more effective than water for dealing with incendiary bombs and the fires caused by them. Further tests have been carried out recently at the request of the proprietors, but I have not yet received a report upon them.
