Meet the Innovation in Safety Award Entrants: BRIDGE HILL AS – FIRE BLANKET

 

In the countdown to this year’s Innovation in Safety Award Ceremony we are sharing each of the entries that we received.  Whilst there can only be one winner of the award itself, the wide range of entries means that there are ideas that will appeal to different readers directly or may be the inspiration for your own next step change for safety.

We will introduce you all to all of the entries before the Award Ceremony on 23 February.

Today’s entry is:

BRIDGE HILL AS – FIRE BLANKET

Our fire blankets enable firefighters and non-firefighters to safely isolate and extinguish fires in combustion- and electric vehicles, e-scooters, parking garages, public buildings, car parks, ropax, warehouses, cargo- and RORO ships and other spaces before the fire spreads. 

The purpose of the fire blanket is to deprive oxygen, and then extinguishing all traditional fires without a drop of water. When using the Bridgehill fire blanket, the fire fighters, people in the area and the environment are less exposed to the smoke.  The blanket prevents the fire from spreading, which is especially important in areas where cars are parked close. When used on shore, the fire blanket prevents the risk of extinguishing water seeping into the groundwater.

Bridgehill fire blankets come in different sizes, and are made for both single-use for the corporate market (e.g. RORO and warehouses), and multiple-use purpose for the professional market (e.g. firefighting).
