Can a high-temperature resistant fire blanket be used for general firefighting?

1. Introduction to High-Temperature Resistant Fire Blanket

Fire blankets are flame-retardant, heat-resistant, non-combustible, corrosion-resistant, and insect-proof.

They can effectively reduce fire damage, increase chances of escape, minimize casualties, and protect

people's lives and property. Made of flame-retardant fiber fabric and specially processed, they have a

compact structure and heat resistance, capable of preventing and isolating fire.

2. Fire Extinguishing Principle

Cover the fire source to cut off the air supply, achieving the purpose of extinguishing the fire.

Main Usage Locations:

Fire blankets are mainly used in enterprises, shopping malls, ships, vehicles, and private buildings.

They are particularly suitable for places prone to fires, such as homes, restaurants, kitchens, hotels,

entertainment venues, and gas stations, preventing fire spread and aiding in fire protection and escape.

3. Benefits of Fire Blankets

They can be reused without damage. Compared with water-based and dry powder fire extinguishers:

1. No expiration date.

2. No secondary contamination after use.

3. Insulation and high-temperature resistance.

4. Convenient to carry, simple to deploy, quick to use, undamaged, and reusable.

4. Uses and Purposes of Fire Blankets

Escape: Wrap the body in a fire blanket and wear a smoke mask to immediately escape from the fire.

Fire blankets can isolate flames and reduce fire scene temperatures.

Industrial Safety: In steel mills, arc welding, boiler rooms, chemical laboratories, and other places

where sparks or fires may occur, fire blankets can resist sparks, slag splashes, and welding spatter,

isolating the workplace and reducing the risk of fire during welding operations.

Initial Fire Extinguishing: In the early stages of a fire, directly covering the source or burning object

with a fire blanket can quickly extinguish the fire.

Earthquake Escape: Fold the fire blanket and place it over the head; its thick and soft structure

reduces impact from falling objects.

How to Use a Fire Blanket:

1. Fix or place the fire blanket on a more visible and easily accessible wall or drawer.

2. In case of fire, quickly take out the fire blanket and hold the two black straps with both hands.

3. Gently unfold the fire blanket and hold it in hand as a shield.

4. Carefully cover the fire with the blanket while turning off the power or gas supply.

5. The fire blanket must continuously cover the burning object and take proactive fire prevention

measures until the fire is completely extinguished.

6. When the fire is out and the blanket is cooled, wrap the blanket in a bowl and dispose of it as

non-combustible waste.

7. If someone is on fire, shake out the blanket, completely wrap the person in it to extinguish the

flames, and immediately call 120 emergency services.
