B2i Digital Names CitroTech Inc. a Featured Company, Highlighting Environmentally Safe Fire Inhibitor

B2i Digital, Inc., a digital marketing and investor awareness platform, has announced that CitroTech Inc. (NYSE American: CITR) has been named a B2i Digital Featured Company. CitroTech develops and deploys environmentally safe fire inhibitor solutions for wildfire prevention, lumber, and wood products. The company’s fire inhibitor, made from food-grade ingredients like citric acid, is the only long-term fire inhibitor recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under its Safer Choice program as safe for the environment. This distinction, along with a portfolio of 31 issued patents and 56 pending, sets CitroTech apart in the industry.

The announcement comes on the heels of significant commercial developments. In April 2026, Hexion, a global producer of adhesives and performance materials, formed a 50/50 joint venture with CitroTech called HexiTech LLC to bring its fire-retardant technology to the lumber and engineered wood industry. This partnership opens the path to commercial scale in wood products, a key market for fire-resistant materials.

Additionally, All Risk Shield, a California firefighter and veteran-owned wildfire defense company, tested leading products on the market and selected CitroTech as its go-to solution, noting it had no detectable heavy metals above the lab’s reporting limits. In San Diego, the fire marshal reported that the Alvarado Estates community, treated with CitroTech, saw roughly 50% fewer fires over about two years.

David Shapiro, CEO of B2i Digital, commented on the selection: “What piqued my interest in CitroTech is simple. They built a fire inhibitor that works and that the EPA recognizes as safe for the environment, and no one else can say that. When a team of veteran firefighters tests the whole field and still picks your product, that tells you something real.” Shapiro emphasized that CitroTech’s story aligns with B2i Digital’s mission to connect investors with compelling opportunities.

Wes Bolsen, CEO of CitroTech, noted the timing: “Every market we serve is moving toward safer chemistry, and we have spent years building the products and the credentials to lead it. With the Hexion joint venture underway, this is the right moment to broaden our shareholder base, and B2i Digital connects us with the investors we want for what comes next.”

The implications for the industry and public safety are significant. Wildfires have become increasingly destructive, and traditional fire retardants often raise environmental and health concerns. CitroTech’s non-phosphate, food-grade formulation offers a safer alternative that can be applied to homes, wildlands, and wood products without the toxic heavy metals found in some competing products. The EPA’s Safer Choice recognition provides a strong endorsement for environmentally conscious consumers and regulators.

For the lumber and wood products industry, the HexiTech joint venture with Hexion could accelerate adoption of fire-resistant materials in construction, potentially reducing fire risk in buildings and infrastructure. This aligns with evolving building codes and growing demand for sustainable, safe building materials.

B2i Digital, based in New York, positions itself as a capital markets matchmaker, connecting investors with public companies through digital marketing and live events. By featuring CitroTech, B2i Digital aims to increase visibility among its network of over 1.7 million market participants.

CitroTech, headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colorado, continues to expand its product line, which includes wildland application, factory and on-site wood treatment, and self-contained spray systems. The company’s technology is tested to UL GREENGUARD Gold standards, further validating its safety and performance. For more details, visit https://www.citrotech.com.
