Our economy fire blankets are ideal for small kitchens in your home, office, caravan or boat so you’re always prepared to tackle a frying pan fire or other small fires. Manufactured from a high-quality coated glass fibre material, the small fire blanket is supplied in a wipe-clean soft-pouch case which is complete with printed instructions that are easy to follow.
Measuring 1.1m x 1.1m, Vigil fire blankets are both performance and quality tested in accordance with BS EN 1869:2019 by SGS Group, the world's leading testing, inspection and certification company. We believe our materials create one of the most effective fire blankets on the market.
The economy fire blanket is suitable for fires involving cooking fats and oils up to 3 litres and comes with a 5-year warranty. Larger fire blankets are available for commercial use.
With a mounting eyelet for hanging on the wall, the blanket is secured within the pouch using Velcro fastening and is easily released by simply pulling the tabs down. To use, unfold the blanket and then carefully place the blanket over the flames by holding the pull tabs. The economy fire blanket works by smothering the fire and cutting out oxygen so it can burn itself out and prevent the fire from spreading.
The economy fire blanket is suitable for small kitchen areas, caravan parks, holiday homes, and landlord flats.
Anticipated lifespan of this fire blanket: The FIA recommends replacing fire blankets after 7 years. Always replace after a fire.
Special Note: Beware of cheap, untested fire blankets sold on marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay. They often state "C E Standard: 1869-1997" near the top and "Made in P.R.C." near the bottom. Some of these may burn through or actually catch fire when used.
