The car fire blanket is the fastest, most efficient way to isolate and control electric vehicle and traditional car fires. When an electric vehicle catches on fire, over 100 organic chemicals are generated, including toxic gases such as carbon monoxide and hydrogen cyanide. The lithium-ion batteries are difficult to extinguish and fire departments globally are unprepared for the associated risk. The Car Fire Isolator Blanket controls the fire, smoke, and toxic fumes, enabling you to isolate the flames in minutes.
Lithium-ion car batteries can catch on fire for any of the following reasons, a puncture, an electrical fault and overheating. A car battery fire will reach the heat of 400 degrees Celsius / 752 degrees Fahrenheit and the fire blanket can with stand heat of 1600 degrees Celsius / 2912 degrees Fahrenheit. The fire blanket can be reused up to 30 times.
