Wool has a high nitrogen and water content by nature. This trait makes the woolen fire blanket material highly flame-resistant. Wool fire blankets do not melt, drip, or stick to the skin as it burns to make them an excellent fiber for fire protection. Fireproof blankets made of fiberglass act as a shield against fires, protecting you from not just the flames but also the heat. Fiberglass fire blankets are used in houses, offices, manufacturing plants, welding shops, etc. These blankets protect users from a higher intensity of heat than wool. Fiberglass fireproof blankets can be used against flames of over 260°C. They can also withstand a molten metal splash of up to 1200°C, which is way higher than most houses, offices, or even industrial fires.
The fire blanket is used to smother the flames, starve them of oxygen and extinguish the fire before it gets out of control. A simple grab and pull of the handles will allow the emergency fire blanket to fall from the wall container and cover an operator’s hands, protecting them from burns. They can be safely deployed in the event of an emergency without any special training – although a potential user should familiarize themselves with the instructions on the container beforehand. By placing a firefighter blanket on the ground and wrapping them in the blanket, oxygen is excluded, and the flames are diminished. Using a fire blanket on a person whose clothing has caught fire can also be used to put out tiny liquid and solid fires.
