Fire Blankets and Emergency Blankets

-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --

Introduction: Smothering Small Fires and Personal Protection

Fire Blankets are a simple, yet highly effective, form of fire protection designed to extinguish small, contained fires (Class A, B, and F/K) by smothering them and cutting off the oxygen supply. They are particularly valuable for suppressing liquid fuel fires (like cooking oil) and for use as personal protective equipment during emergency evacuation.

Our blankets are typically made from woven fiberglass or treated synthetic fibers, capable of withstanding extreme temperatures (up to 1000∘C or 1832∘F). They are stored folded inside a quick-release container (soft pouch or hard cabinet) that allows for rapid deployment with pull-down tabs. Standard sizes include 1.2 m×1.2 m for domestic use and 1.8 m×1.8 m for commercial kitchens or industrial use.

Emergency Blankets, which are usually larger, are primarily used to wrap around a person whose clothes have caught fire, or as a thermal barrier during evacuation. While simple, they require specific manufacturing and testing standards (like EN 1869 in Europe) to ensure effectiveness and safety. (Approx. 500 words)

Advantage: No Residue, Fast Action, and Safety

  • Smothers Fire: The blanket cuts off the fire's oxygen supply effectively, extinguishing the fire without causing collateral damage.
  • Safe for Liquid Fires (K/F): Unlike water, the blanket can be safely used on deep fat fryer fires, preventing the splattering of hot oil.
  • No Cleanup Required: Leaves zero residue (unlike powder or foam extinguishers), making it ideal for sensitive environments like labs or small kitchens.
  • Ease of Use: Operation is extremely simple (pull the tabs, cover the fire), requiring minimal training compared to fire extinguishers.
  • Personal Safety: Can be used to protect a person and their escape path from fire and heat exposure.
  • Long Lifespan: Requires virtually no maintenance or periodic testing, needing only visual inspection.

Suppression of Small, Contained Fires

Commercial and Domestic Kitchens

Essential for smothering small cooking oil fires (deep fryers, stovetops) where water or other agents could be ineffective or hazardous.

Laboratories and Workshops

Used to quickly contain small chemical spills or small fires on laboratory benches, preventing rapid spread.

Welding and Cutting Areas

Used as a protective screen or curtain to shield adjacent combustible materials from sparks and slag.

Personal Protection

Wrapping around a person whose clothing has ignited (stop, drop, and roll alternative).

Hotels and Dormitories

Small, easily stored units placed in rooms or common kitchenettes for immediate first-response capability.

Professional Usage Tips

  1. Placement and Accessibility:

    Mount the blanket in an easily accessible location (e.g., on a wall next to the stove or near the frying equipment) and clearly marked.

  2. Smothering Technique:

    When using the blanket, hold it to shield your hands as you approach the fire, then gently lay the blanket over the fire, ensuring no air can enter.

  3. Power Shutoff:

    If the fire is on an appliance, shut off the power or gas supply immediately after smothering the fire, if safe to do so.

  4. Leave the Blanket:

    Once the fire is covered, leave the blanket in place for at least 30 minutes to allow the heat to dissipate completely and prevent re-ignition.

  5. Disposal:

    Fire blankets that have been used to extinguish a fire must be discarded and replaced, as the integrity of the material is compromised by extreme heat.

FAQ

Fire blankets are highly effective on Class F/K (cooking oil/fat) fires, as they smother the oil without scattering the burning fuel.

Modern fire blankets use a high-quality, coated fiberglass fabric that minimizes skin irritation, but gloves are still recommended if handling frequently.

A fire blanket is only suitable for small, contained fires, typically no larger than the blanket itself. Do not use it on fires that have spread vertically.

The blanket and container should be visually inspected monthly to ensure the seals are intact, the blanket is present, and the pull tabs are accessible.

The key European standard for fire blankets is EN 1869, which specifies performance requirements for extinguishing cooking fires.

No, the blanket should never be washed or reused after being used on a fire, as the material's fire-resistant properties may be permanently damaged.

A Fire Blanket is thinner and meant for smothering. A Welding Blanket is thicker and designed to protect surfaces from falling sparks and slag.

While not universally mandated by code, it is highly recommended as a cost-effective and safe first-aid measure against grease fires.

The Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) for high-volume fire blankets in soft pouches is typically 10,000 units.

Our top-grade ceramic-fiber blankets can resist temperatures up to 1260∘C (2300∘F), though fiberglass is standard for consumer safety.
