The FireShield Soft Case Fire Blanket is a flexible and durable fire blanket range, suitable for smothering and extinguishing fires. The blanket is ideally suited for kitchens, schools, offices, hospitals or factories etc and has flush end caps for easy cleaning. The blanket comes in a soft pouch that ensures flexibility and durability.
The FireShield Soft Case Fire Blanket is a reliable piece of fire safety equipment made from fire-resistant woven fibreglass material, designed to extinguish small fires effectively. Housed in a convenient soft case, it allows for quick and easy access during emergencies. We offer various size options, each large enough to cover most small fires.
The blanket works by cutting off the oxygen supply, smothering the flames when placed directly over them. Fire blankets are especially useful in kitchens and laboratories, where pan, oil, or cooking fires are more likely to occur. To use, simply remove the blanket from its case, unfold it, and gently lay it over the fire, ensuring the entire area is covered.
The FireShield fire blanket is manufactured in accordance with BS EN 1869:2019, the European Standard that specifies the safety, material, size, labelling, and packaging requirements for fire blankets intended for general public use.

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.
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.
A: 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.
