Fire Blankets

Fire blankets are manufactured from wool or fiberglass or other fire resistant materials. They may also be chemically treated to increase the fire resistant capacity of the blanket. Fire blanket helps extinguish a fire by restricting the flow of oxygen to the object on fire, which would otherwise keep the fire burning. It could also be wrapped around a person while escaping through a fire. There are different types of fire blankets on the market. Each type of fire blanket is manufactured to put out fires that arise from different products. The different types of fire blankets are regular wool blankets, infant fire blanket, kitchen fire blankets, occupational fire blankets, and professional/EMS fire blankets. Regular wool fire blankets could be used in any fire situation and are manufactured from retardant-treated wool. An infant fire blanket is produced from special soft and lightweight materials and is used to protect children in the event of a fire.

A kitchen fire blanket is manufactured for household use and can efficiently put out small fires that may arise in a kitchen. An occupational fire blanket is larger than the previously mentioned fire blankets and is used for workplaces where chemicals, oil, and other inflammable products are used. Professional or Ems fire blankets are used by trained firefighters during a rescue operation. Some of the most popular locations in UAE to find manufacturers and suppliers of fire blankets are Muroor road in Abu Dhabi and Industrial area 2 in Sharjah.
