Fire Blanket

A fire blanket is a versatile and effective tool for extinguishing small fires and smothering flames, providing a quick and safe way to suppress fires before they escalate. Made from fire-resistant materials such as fiberglass or wool, fire blankets are designed to withstand high temperatures and block oxygen, effectively smothering flames and preventing the spread of fire.

A fire blanket is a safety equipment used to put out tiny (starting) flames. It is comprised of a sheet of high grade E-glass fibre loomstate or fibreglass composites that can withstand temperatures of up to 550 degrees Celsius. The sheet may be coloured and folded into a quick-release device for storing convenience.

Fire blankets are designed for quick and easy deployment in the event of a fire emergency. With a simple pull of the tabs or handles, the blanket can be swiftly removed from its storage container and placed over the fire, cutting off the oxygen supply and extinguishing flames within seconds.

It is intended to be thrown over a fire to smother it, particularly to extinguish tiny incipient flames, such as in kitchens, around the home, laboratories, supermarkets, hotels, petrol stations and industrial settings.

Fire blankets provide a safe and effective means of suppressing fires without the need for water or chemical extinguishing agents. Unlike traditional firefighting methods, such as using water or foam, fire blankets do not create a mess or pose a risk of electrical shock, making them safe for use on live electrical equipment and appliances.

Fire blankets, like fire extinguishers, are fire safety devices that might come in handy in the event of a fire. These nonflammable materials can withstand temperatures of up to 1300 °C for Nextel ceramic fibers, 1200 °C for glass fibers, 480 °C for Kevlar, and 570 °C for wool. These are excellent for putting out fires by lowering the amount of oxygen available to the flames. A fire blanket may be more useful for someone who is unfamiliar with fire extinguishers due to its simplicity.
