Full description

Galley fires and hydrocarbon incidents aboard vessels require rapid suppression using equipment crew can handle safely. The Water-Jel fire blanket combines wool construction with water-absorption technology to deliver dual suppression: the blanket smothers flames whilst its intercellular weave absorbs liquid, allowing water to seep into the fire matrix for sustained cooling. Weighing 9.25 kg, the 182.8 x 152.4 cm blanket is sized for galley stoves, fryer stations and small machinery compartment fires.  

The wool carrier resists melting and maintains structural integrity in high-temperature exposure. Absorption capacity of 13 times the blanket's own weight means prolonged cooling action as water gradually migrates through the weave. The blanket integrates into vessel emergency response systems as a cost-effective, low-maintenance alternative to powder extinguishers in spaces where chemical residue must be minimised.
