Who needs Electric Vehicle Fire Blankets?
With the continuing rise in electric and hybrid vehicle sales, more and more settings need to consider safety in the event of fire.
Service & repair garages
Cars with damage or cars that have recently been involved in an accident have a greater chance of self-igniting. An Electric Vehicle Fire Blanket should be easily available at any car repair shop, paint shop or workshop.
Vehicle charging points
As the risk of fire is greater when vehicles are charged, any setting that provides charging facilities should also carry Electric Vehicle Fire Blankets on site.
Shopping centres
Shopping locations that offer parking and maybe charging facilities as well, should have Electric Vehicle Fire Blankets on hand in key locations.
Car parks
In parking garages and other places with a high concentration of cars, there’s always a risk of car fire. Our First Responder Electric Vehicle Fire Blanket should be easily accessible on every parking level.
Ferries
On a car ferry, it’s crucial to isolate fire and smoke quickly to prevent the fire from spreading and avoid panic among passengers. An Electric Vehicle Fire Blanket should be available on every car deck.
Petrol stations
An Electric Vehicle Fire Blanket should be easily accessible at both traditional petrol stations and electric car charging stations. At a petrol station, it can prevent the fire from spreading to pumps and other vehicles. At charging stations, it’s the only solution that can quickly and safely isolate the fire in lithium powered vehicles.
Recovery services
Rescue and repair vehicles regularly transport broken or damaged cars, including cars that have been involved in an accident or fire. It’s therefore important to have an Electric Vehicle Fire Blanket easily accessible inside the rescue vehicle.
Airports
Cars parked at airport terminals and also luggage cars, forklifts and other vehicles can be at risk of fire. Airports should have a number of Electric Vehicle Fire Blankets near throughout the parking facilities.
Road tunnels
In road tunnels, it’s crucial to isolate smoke and toxic gases from car fires quickly, as they pose a danger to people inside the tunnel. Electric Vehicle Fire Blankets should be available at regular intervals throughout the tunnel.
