Overview Features Technical Data FAQs

The FireShield Hard Case Fire Blanket is a high-quality K40 woven glass fibre cloth protected by a reinforced, hard case, ideal for commercial kitchen areas. The FireShield Hard Case Fire Blanket is a reliable piece of fire safety equipment designed to extinguish small fires by smothering the flames. The blanket is housed in a durable hard case, providing protection from damage and ensuring it can be stored neatly and accessed quickly in an emergency.

Made from fire-resistant woven fibreglass material, the blanket works by cutting off the oxygen supply to the flames, effectively extinguishing the fire. To use, simply remove the blanket from its case, unfold it, and gently place it over the fire, ensuring the entire area is covered.

Fire blankets are commonly found in kitchens, workshops, and other areas with a potential fire risk. When used correctly, they help reduce fire damage and prevent the spread of flames. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and consider wearing protective gear, such as heat-resistant gloves, to avoid burns during use.

The FireShield Hard Case Fire Blanket is approved by the British Standards Institution (BSI) and meets European safety standards. These standards define the requirements for the design, manufacture, and performance of fire blankets, including the time taken to extinguish flames once deployed.

Q: What Are the British and European Standards for Fire Blankets?

A: BS EN 1869:2019 is a European standard for fire blankets. This standard specifies the requirements for fire blankets used in controlling small fires in domestic and non-domestic environments.

This document covers the design, construction, performance and labelling of fire blankets. It is intended to ensure their safety and effectiveness for use in specific environments.

BS EN 1869:2019 specifies requirements for materials, size, packaging, labelling, and testing of fire blankets. The standard also includes requirements for the maintenance and storage of fire blankets, including instructions for use and disposal.

This standard is intended to be used in conjunction with other relevant fire safety standards and regulations, such as building codes and fire safety codes. It is important to ensure that fire blankets comply with BS EN 1869:2019 to ensure their safety and effectiveness in the event of a fire.

Q: What’s the Difference Between Hard and Soft Case Fire Blankets?

A: A hard case fire blanket is a fire-resistant blanket that is encased in a hard, sturdy container made of metal or plastic. This type of fire blanket is typically used in industrial or commercial settings, as the hard case provides protection for the blanket and makes it more durable for use in rough environments.

A soft case fire blanket, on the other hand, is a fire blanket that is encased in a soft, flexible cover made of cloth or fabric. This type of fire blanket is typically used in residential settings or for personal use, as it is lightweight and easy to carry. Soft case fire blankets are also less expensive than hard case fire blankets. Both types of fire blankets serve the same purpose, which is to extinguish or contain small fires, and to protect people from flames and heat. However, the type of fire blanket you choose will depend on your specific needs and the environment in which you will use it.

Q: When Should A Fire Blanket Be Used?

A: Fire blankets are designed to be used on small fires, such as those involving cooking oils and fats, clothing, and electrical equipment. They are not intended to be used on large fires, such as structural fires, as they are not big enough to cover the entire fire.

Q: How Should A Fire Blanket Be Used?

To use a fire blanket:

•Grab the blanket and remove it from its container.

•Ensure that the blanket covers the entire fire.

•Hold the blanket over the fire using the corners of the blanket, making sure to keep your arms and hands protected from the heat.

•Slowly lower the blanket onto the fire, smothering the flames and cutting off the supply of oxygen.

•Once the fire is out, leave the blanket in place and call the fire department.

It's important to note that fire blankets are not designed to be used on people who are on fire. In this situation, it's best to use a fire extinguisher or cover the person with a heavy, fire-resistant material, such as a rug or a coat, to smother the flames.
