How to Use
Pull the quick-release tabs to remove the blanket from the canister. Hold the blanket in front of you to shield your hands, then place it over the fire to smother it. Do not lift the blanket until the area has cooled — lifting early can reignite the fire. Call emergency services if the fire is not immediately controlled.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between the 1m x 1m and 1.2m x 1.2m?
The 1.2m x 1.2m gives you roughly 44% more coverage area than the 1m x 1m. For a standard 4-burner cooktop, the 1.2m x 1.2m is the better choice — it provides enough coverage to fully smother the largest burner or a standard frypan. The 1m x 1m suits smaller single-burner setups.
Is the 1.2m x 1.2m suitable for a restaurant?
For small cafes and kitchenettes with a single cooktop or small commercial range, yes. For larger commercial kitchens with deep fryers or multiple cooking stations, the 1.2m x 1.8m or a wet chemical extinguisher is more appropriate. Many commercial kitchens keep both a wet chemical extinguisher and a fire blanket.
Can I reuse a fire blanket after it’s been used?
If it was used on a very small fire and shows no visible damage, it may be reusable — inspect it carefully for burns, tears, or contamination. After use on any substantial or oil fire, replace it. When in doubt, replace it — the cost of a new blanket is far less than the risk.
Where should I store a fire blanket?
Mount it on the wall near the kitchen exit — accessible but not directly above the cooktop. You should be able to reach it without crossing the fire. Ensure all household or staff members know its location.
Does a fire blanket need maintenance?
No periodic servicing is required, but inspect it annually — check the canister is intact, the blanket is clean and undamaged, and the quick-release tabs are free and accessible. Replace after any deployment.
