Antari FLG20 Professional Fog Fluid – 20 Litre
Keep high-use venues, touring productions and professional effects systems supplied with Antari FLG20 Professional Fog Fluid – 20 Litre, Antari’s regular-density, regular-dissipating fog fluid for compatible professional fog and atmospheric-effects machines.
Designed for entertainment and production environments requiring dependable atmospheric effects, FLG is an excellent general-purpose fog fluid for theatre, concerts, touring, festivals, film, television, broadcast, live events, venues, schools, conferences and exhibitions.
Antari officially describes FLG as Regular Dense & Regular Dissipating Fog Fluid, providing a balanced atmospheric effect between extremely fast-dissipating formulations and the manufacturer’s much denser, longer-lasting specialist fog fluids.
Supplied in a bulk 20-litre container, FLG20 is particularly suited to production companies, venues, hire departments and touring crews with higher fluid consumption or multiple compatible fog machines.
Regular Density. Regular Dissipation. Professional Atmosphere.
FLG is designed as Antari’s versatile everyday fog-fluid formulation.
Its regular density provides enough visible atmosphere to enhance lighting and special effects, while its regular dissipation prevents it from being positioned as an extremely persistent long-hang formulation.
This makes FLG useful across productions that require a practical balance between:
- Visible atmospheric depth
- Lighting-beam enhancement
- Controlled fog effects
- General-purpose operation
- Predictable dissipation
- Frequent professional use
Rather than being an aggressively dense specialist fluid, FLG is designed as a versatile option for a broad range of compatible Antari fog and fazer machines.
20 Litres for Professional and High-Volume Users
The 20-litre FLG20 format is particularly useful for organisations that consume fog fluid regularly.
Ideal customers include:
- Production companies
- Theatres
- Performing arts venues
- Concert touring companies
- Lighting suppliers
- AV companies
- Equipment-hire companies
- Festivals
- Nightclubs
- Film studios
- Television facilities
- Broadcast studios
- Schools and universities
- Theme and entertainment venues
A larger fluid supply can reduce the need for repeated small-container purchases and provides additional operational capacity for extended production periods.
For venues running atmospheric effects several times each week or touring systems moving through multiple shows, 20 litres provides a practical bulk-fluid option.
Enhance Stage Lighting and Beam Effects
Atmospheric effects play an important role in professional lighting design.
Fog particles suspended in the air allow audiences and cameras to see the path of a lighting beam through space rather than only seeing the illuminated surface at the end of the beam.
Used correctly, FLG can enhance effects from:
- Moving-head fixtures
- Beam fixtures
- Profiles
- Spot fixtures
- Wash fixtures
- Lasers
- Gobos
- Backlighting
- Side lighting
- Scenic lighting
- Architectural lighting
- Concert lighting systems
This can significantly increase the visual depth of a lighting design.
The ideal atmospheric level will depend on venue size, ventilation, air-conditioning, machine positioning, audience movement, stage fans and the lighting design itself.
Theatre and Performing Arts
Antari FLG20 is well suited to theatres and performing arts venues operating compatible fog equipment.
Potential applications include:
- Plays
- Musical theatre
- Dance
- Ballet
- Opera
- Immersive theatre
- School productions
- Community theatre
- Touring theatre
- Performing arts showcases
- Scenic effects
- Lighting enhancement
Fog may be used subtly to reveal beams and backlight or more heavily as a deliberate scenic effect.
Because FLG offers regular density and regular dissipation, it can be a useful general-purpose fluid for venues delivering different production styles throughout the year.
Atmospheric effects should always be coordinated with production management, stage management and venue operations.
Concerts, Touring and Festivals
Professional concert lighting frequently depends on atmospheric effects to make beam fixtures, moving lights and lasers visually effective.
FLG20 is particularly practical for touring and festival environments where fluid consumption may be significant across multiple shows.
Potential applications include:
- Concert tours
- Music festivals
- Arena shows
- Theatre tours
- Club performances
- Corporate entertainment
- Outdoor stages
- Festival tents
- Awards nights
- Product launches
Antari lists FLG as compatible with a range of its professional fog machines, including high-output touring and stage models such as the M-8, M-10 and F-8 Typhon.
The F-8 specification specifically lists Antari FLG-20 Regular Dense & Regular Dissipating Fog Fluid, confirming the 20-litre format as a manufacturer-supported professional fluid option.
Film and Television Production
Atmospheric effects are widely used across film and television production to create depth, reveal lighting and produce environmental effects.
Potential uses include:
- Film sets
- Television studios
- Broadcast studios
- Commercial shoots
- Music videos
- Photography
- Streaming productions
- Scenic environments
- Dramatic entrances
- Backlighting effects
- Simulated atmospheric conditions
Fog can help create visible shafts of light through windows, doors and scenic structures while separating subjects from backgrounds.
For camera work, the required amount of atmosphere can be significantly lower than for a live audience.
Factors including:
- Camera exposure
- Lens selection
- Lighting angle
- Colour temperature
- Depth of field
- Ventilation
- Machine position
can all influence how strongly fog appears on screen.
Camera tests should be carried out before relying on a particular atmospheric density for important shots.
Live Events and Corporate Production
Atmospheric effects are not limited to concerts and theatre.
FLG can also be used with compatible equipment across:
- Corporate events
- Awards ceremonies
- Conferences
- Product launches
- Vehicle reveals
- Brand activations
- Gala events
- Exhibitions
- Trade shows
- Immersive installations
A controlled fog effect combined with lighting can create a strong visual reveal or entrance sequence.
For conferences and exhibitions, atmospheric effects should always be coordinated with the venue before use because smoke-detection and fire-management requirements can vary significantly.
Compatible with Professional Antari Equipment
FLG is listed by Antari as a compatible fluid across numerous professional fog and fazer machines.
Examples include:
- Antari F-1 Fazer
- Antari F-8 Typhon Fazer
- Antari M-8
- Antari M-10
- Antari Z-800III
- Antari Z-1000III
- Antari Z-1500III
- Antari Z-3000III
- Antari Z-390
- Antari IP-1600
Individual machines may support several Antari fluid formulations depending on the effect required.
Always check the operating manual for the exact machine before selecting or changing fluid.
Why Manufacturer-Compatible Fluid Matters
Fog machines rely on a controlled relationship between:
- Fluid formulation
- Heater temperature
- Pump rate
- Fluid delivery
- Vaporisation
- Nozzle design
Using a fluid suitable for the machine helps achieve the atmospheric effect the manufacturer intended.
Poor-quality, contaminated or unsuitable fluids can potentially contribute to:
- Inconsistent output
- Unexpected fog density
- Residue
- Fluid-line contamination
- Heater problems
- Pump issues
- Additional servicing
- Reduced reliability
For professional production environments, machine fluid should be treated as part of the equipment system rather than as a generic interchangeable consumable.
Water-Based Fog Fluid Formulation
Antari’s current Safety Data Sheet covering FLG identifies the product as a liquid mixture containing water, propylene glycol and glycerol. It lists water at 52–57%, propylene glycol at 38–41% and glycerol at 5–7%.
The SDS identifies FLG for use with stage smoke generators and classifies the mixture as not classified under the referenced CLP regulation, with no signal word or hazard pictogram specified.
Professional users should still read the current SDS and follow appropriate workplace handling procedures.
Fog Fluid Is Not Haze Fluid
Fog and haze are related atmospheric effects, but the fluids and machines are not automatically interchangeable.
Fog machines generally create a more visible plume or cloud.
Dedicated haze systems are normally designed to create a finer and more continuously distributed atmosphere.
Antari maintains separate product categories for:
- Fog fluid
- Low-fog fluid
- Haze fluid
- CO₂-effect fluid
- Fire-training fog fluid
Always use the fluid specified for the machine.
FLG Is Not Dedicated Low-Fog Fluid
One particularly important distinction is that FLG is not Antari’s dedicated low-fog fluid.
Antari separately lists its low-fog fluids under a dedicated LOW FOG FLUID category, distinct from FLG and the standard fog-fluid range.
A true low-lying or ground-hugging fog effect generally depends on the complete effect system, including:
- Machine design
- Cooling system
- Airflow
- Fluid specification
- Environmental conditions
Simply using FLG in a conventional fog machine does not turn it into a dedicated low-fog system.
FLG should therefore be described as regular-density, regular-dissipating professional fog fluid, not “low-lying fog fluid”.
Not Antari’s Longest-Hang Fog Fluid
FLG should also not be described as Antari’s maximum-density or longest-hanging fluid.
Antari offers other formulations specifically designed for significantly different density and dissipation characteristics.
For example, current Antari professional machine specifications distinguish FLG from:
- FLH – thinner / faster dissipating characteristics depending on the current machine listing
- FLR – extra dense and extremely fast dissipating
- FLZ – super dense and super long lasting
The exact compatible fluid options vary by machine.
This makes FLG’s strength its versatility rather than maximum hang time.
Do Not Mix or Modify Fog Fluid
Avoid mixing different fog-fluid formulations unless the equipment manufacturer specifically permits it.
Do not add:
- Water
- Fragrance
- Dye
- Oil
- Cleaning chemicals
- Other fog fluids
to FLG unless specifically instructed by the manufacturer.
Changing the formulation can affect machine operation, fog density, dissipation and reliability.
When changing between fluid types, follow the machine manufacturer’s recommended fluid-change or cleaning procedure.
Schools and Performing Arts Centres
The 20-litre container can be particularly useful for schools, universities and performing arts centres with active technical-production programs.
Applications may include:
- School musicals
- Theatre productions
- Dance concerts
- Technical training
- Performing arts showcases
- Awards events
- Music performances
- Drama productions
- Graduation ceremonies
Schools should ensure atmospheric effects are operated by suitably trained personnel and covered by appropriate venue procedures and risk assessments.
Fire detection and ventilation requirements should be considered before use.
Smoke Detection and Venue Approval
Artificial theatrical fog can interact with smoke-detection and fire-management systems.
Before operating a fog machine, production teams should establish:
- Venue approval
- Fire-system requirements
- Detector-management procedures
- Fire warden requirements
- Ventilation conditions
- Emergency arrangements
- Local venue policies
Never cover, disable or interfere with a detector without the required authorisation and procedure.
For temporary venues, festivals, schools and conference centres, atmospheric effects should form part of the production safety planning.
Ventilation and Atmospheric Control
The amount of fog required can change substantially from venue to venue.
Important factors include:
- Air-conditioning
- Mechanical ventilation
- Open doors
- Outdoor wind
- Stage fans
- Audience movement
- Ceiling height
- Venue volume
- Machine location
- Output direction
A small theatre with limited air movement may retain atmosphere considerably longer than a large concert venue with strong HVAC.
Lighting and effects operators should therefore adjust machine output to suit the actual environment rather than relying on one fixed setting.
Storage and Handling
Antari’s current SDS advises keeping containers tightly closed and storing the product in a dry, cool and well-ventilated location away from heat.
Good production-fluid management also includes:
- Keeping the original cap securely fitted
- Preventing contamination
- Keeping filling funnels and hoses clean
- Separating different fluid formulations
- Clearly identifying partially used containers
- Protecting containers during transport
- Cleaning spills promptly
- Keeping stock away from unauthorised access
- Rotating stock appropriately
Never pour contaminated or recovered fluid back into a clean container.
20-Litre Handling Considerations
A full 20-litre container is considerably heavier and more cumbersome than a 5-litre bottle.
Production teams should consider appropriate manual-handling procedures when:
- Moving containers
- Loading vehicles
- Transferring fluid
- Positioning stock in warehouses
- Carrying fluid backstage
- Refilling elevated machines
Where practical, transfer fluid using appropriate clean equipment rather than attempting an awkward pour from a full 20-litre container.
Keep the transfer equipment dedicated to the correct fluid type to minimise contamination.
Safety Information
The current Antari SDS identifies FLG as fog liquid intended for stage smoke generators.
The mixture is listed as not classified under the referenced CLP hazardous-mixture classification. The SDS nevertheless provides standard handling guidance including adequate ventilation, avoiding unnecessary contact, appropriate eye and hand protection during handling, and keeping containers securely closed.
Professional users should:
- Read the current SDS
- Follow equipment instructions
- Maintain adequate ventilation
- Avoid unnecessary inhalation of concentrated output
- Clean spills promptly
- Keep the container labelled
- Follow workplace chemical-handling procedures
- Seek appropriate medical advice where required
