WATERJEL 96"x72"(8 ft x 6.3 ft) Heat Shield Fire Extinguishing Blanket

Ensure your facility is equipped for the most critical emergencies with the WATERJEL Heat Shield Blanket, a heavy-duty 96" x 72" worsted wool barrier designed to extinguish flames and provide immediate first aid for severe burns. This expansive life-saving tool is a primary defense for high-risk industrial environments where thermal hazards are a constant threat.

Maximum Thermal Protection with the 96"x72" Heat Shield Blanket

The 7296-C model is constructed from premium worsted wool featuring a specialized intercellular weave that is capable of absorbing up to 13 times its own weight in protective gel. This biodegradable, bacteriostatic, and water-soluble gel works instantly to extinguish flames on a victim while simultaneously cooling the burn to stop pain and injury progression. At 8 feet by 6 feet, this blanket provides massive coverage, allowing for the full-body wrapping of a patient to stabilize them for transport to a burn center or ER. The blanket is housed in a high-visibility, durable orange canister, ensuring it can be located and deployed in seconds during a chaotic emergency. It is an essential medical-grade resource for any safety program that prioritizes rapid, effective response to thermal accidents.

Why You Need a WATERJEL Heat Shield Blanket in Your Facility

In an industrial fire or flash-over event, a standard wool blanket isn't enough; you need a dedicated Heat Shield Blanket that provides both fire suppression and immediate clinical first aid. Customers choose this 96" x 72" version because its superior absorption capacity allows it to hold a massive amount of cooling gel, which draws heat away from the skin significantly faster than water alone. By wrapping a victim in this gel-soaked wool, you are not only putting out the fire but also creating a sterile environment that helps prevent infection during the critical moments before professional medical help arrives. This blanket is a vital investment for oil rigs, chemical plants, and heavy manufacturing sites where large-scale fire and heat protection is a mandatory safety requirement.
