Follow these steps for safe and effective deployment
Ensure the blanket is appropriately sized for the vehicle. Unroll the blanket completely and position it behind the car or in the intended deployment direction.
Safety: Full PPE and SCBA must be worn at all times while handling or deploying any fire blanket exposed to the car. Deployment requires a minimum of two people.
Lift the blanket by the handles and carry it towards the vehicle. Deploy the blanket over the vehicle, starting from one end and unrolling it completely to cover the vehicle.
Caution: Approach the vehicle from the sides rather than front or rear when possible. Battery fires can cause projectile hazards.
Ensure the blanket fully covers the vehicle and extends to the ground on all sides.
Tuck edges if necessary to minimize oxygen access.
Note: Monitor for at least 45 minutes. EV battery fires can reignite.
Leave the blanket on the vehicle for at least 45 minutes to allow complete cooling.
Continuously monitor the area for signs of reignition.
Tip: Keep water or additional suppression equipment ready in case of reignition.
After the cooling phase, authorized recovery teams can safely remove the vehicle.
The fire blanket can be reused for transport to cover the vehicle during transport.
Important: The vehicle must be transported to an approved disposal facility for damaged EV batteries.
Consult local regulations for proper disposal of damaged EV batteries.
Every minute matters when an EV fire strikes. Strategic deployment of EV Fire Blankets transforms vulnerable areas into protected zones.
Transform every level of your parking facility into a fire-safe zone. Quick access to our blankets prevents fire spread in densely packed areas, protecting multiple vehicles and maintaining structural integrity.
Ensure passenger safety and vessel protection on car ferries. Strategic placement on car decks provides immediate response capability, preventing fire spread in critical maritime environments where evacuation options are limited.
Protect your investment at both traditional gas stations and EV charging locations. Our blankets offer dual-threat protection: containing gasoline fires and managing complex lithium battery incidents—making them essential safety equipment for modern fueling stations.
Safeguard your repair facility where damaged vehicles pose elevated fire risks. Keep blankets readily available in workshops, paint shops, and service bays to protect expensive equipment and maintain business continuity.
Equip every tow truck and recovery vehicle with essential fire protection. When transporting damaged or compromised vehicles, immediate access to suppression equipment can prevent catastrophic escalation.
Protect critical tunnel infrastructure and save lives with strategic blanket placement. In confined spaces where smoke and toxic gases pose extreme dangers, rapid fire isolation becomes essential for occupant survival.
Secure high-traffic areas where vehicles, luggage carriers, and ground support equipment operate. Protect valuable aviation assets and ensure continuous operations by positioning blankets at terminal entrances and throughout operational zones.

While multi-use options might seem cost-effective initially, they come with serious risks.
In a sobering incident in Victoria, two firefighters suffered permanent disability from cobalt poisoning after responding to an EV fire. This tragic event serves as a stark reminder of why proper safety protocols and single-use equipment are non-negotiable in EV fire response.
Direct flame contact permanently alters the blanket's protective coating. Once exposed to extreme EV fire temperatures, the blanket's effectiveness is irreversibly changed.
After exposure to an EV fire, blankets become contaminated with hazardous materials including toxic metals. Each use leaves behind dangerous residues that can't be safely removed in the field.
There's no reliable way to verify a used blanket's effectiveness in the field. Without laboratory testing, it's impossible to know if a used blanket will provide adequate protection in the next emergency.
