Advantages of Firex fire blankets
Quick and easy to use
Designed for extinguishing small fires, Firex fire blankets can be deployed quickly, in seconds. They are particularly user-friendly, with clear graphic instructions on the packaging.. This makes them invaluable in emergency situations, such as when a person's clothing catches fire, oil in the kitchen or grill, flammable liquids in containers, and any other fire in a smaller area that can be covered.
Safety
Firex fire blankets are made from a fabric that offers a safe way to put out a fire. They work by cutting off the oxygen supply to the fire, effectively stopping the fire from spreading. In addition, they are non-toxic, which ensures that no harmful fumes are released when used.
Versatility
Firex fire blankets are versatile and can be used in a variety of situations, from pan grease fires to larger fires. They come in a variety of types and sizes, each with their own unique benefits:
Firex Fiberglass Blankets: These are the most common type and are quite affordable. Fiberglass can withstand temperatures of up to 500 degrees Celsius, making it ideal for kitchen or garage fires.
Coated Fire Blankets: Coated fire blankets have a coating (silicone) that increases their resistance to fire, flaming liquid upwelling, and punctures. They can withstand temperatures up to 550 degrees Celsius and are resistant to water and oil, making them durable and ideal for industrial use. Flammable liquids do not have the opportunity to seep through the surface of the blanket and thus allow further combustion, as is the case with ordinary fiberglass blankets
Cost effectiveness
Fire blankets are cost effective, especially when compared to other extinguishing methods such as portable fire extinguishers. They offer long life, with some types, such as coated fire blankets, offering increased durability due to their wear resistance.
Minimal damage
Fire blankets cause less damage than water or chemical extinguishers. They leave no residue and reduce water damage, making the cleaning process easier. In addition, they have a lower impact on the environment due to their non-toxic nature. Fire masks, with their quick deployment, safety features, versatility, cost effectiveness and minimal damage, make them an essential part of any fire safety or emergency plan. They offer a range of options to suit different fire types and environments, making them an essential part of any firefighting toolkit.
Application of fire blankets
Fire blankets made of flame retardant fabric have a wide range of applications in various industries due to their ability to extinguish small fires and offer fire protection. These are in particular the following applications:
Home use
- In the home, fire blankets are an essential part of any fire safety plan. They are designed to put out small fires that can occur in places like the kitchen where a grease fire in a pan can quickly escalate.
- Also very useful in home workshop, garage, fireplaces where flammable liquids are used, open fire, woodworking.
- A fire blanket can smother a fire, prevent its spread and potentially save lives and property. Additionally, if a person's clothing catches fire, the stop, drop and roll method can be supplemented with a fire blanket to effectively smother the flames.
Commercial use
- In commercial environments such as restaurants, hotels and offices, fire blankets serve as a critical part of fire prevention measures. They are easy to use even by an untrained employee, making them ideal for quickly dealing with fires before they become larger fires. For example, in restaurants, they can be used to fight grease fires, which fire extinguishers usually put out only at the cost of contaminating the surroundings. Silicone coated blankets are more suitable for this application.
Industrial use
- Industrial environments often involve high temperatures and potential fire hazards. Fire blankets, especially those coated with silicone, provide an additional layer of fire protection by being impervious to flammable liquids. Silicone-coated blankets are also more suitable for this application due to their high puncture resistance and perfect oxygen impermeability to fire. Moreover, they are an essential part of any industrial emergency action plan.
Size selection:
- Dimensions: 1 x 1 m
*Larger fire blankets measuring 1 x 1.8 m are intended especially where people work with open flames or highly flammable liquids. This size of the blanket makes it possible to wrap the entire person on whom the clothing caught fire. Extinguishing clothing is thus much more effective.
Using the fire blanket is simple and is illustrated on the packaging, but there are a few best practices to keep in mind to ensure maximum effectiveness:
- Stay calm: In the event of a fire, it is important to stay calm and act quickly but carefully.
- Assess the situation: Before attempting to use a fire blanket, assess the size and intensity of the fire. Remember that fire blankets are best for small fires such as those involving cooking oil or clothing.
- Protect yourself: If possible, wear protective gear such as gloves and goggles before approaching a fire.
- Cover the fire: Carefully drape a fire blanket over the flames, making sure it completely covers the burning area. Avoid air to prevent re-ignition of the fire.
- Leave it in place: Once the fire is out, leave the blanket in place for some time (30 min) to ensure the area cools down completely.
