Strikers Fire Blanket

A fire blanket is a safety device designed to extinguish incipient fires.

It consists of a sheet of a fire retardant material which is placed over a fire in order to smother it.

What is a fire blanket used for

Fire blankets can be used to extinguish small fires in the home, caravan, boat or garage. They can also be used to wrap around a person whose clothes have caught alight. It is best to store fire blankets in or adjacent to a kitchen but not too close to a potential hazard for example above a stove.

Fire blankets are an especially good idea for kitchens where might catch fire.
