The capabilities of the ‘Fire Cloak’ Electric Vehicle Fire Blanket by Prosol UK were demonstrated in March at the HORIBA MIRA test facility in Nuneaton, with motor industry professionals from organisations including the Volkswagen Group, Direct Line and Continental present.

Comments Andy: “We’re delighted to be able to share the video of that demonstration and take this opportunity to thank Warwickshire Fire & Rescue Service for doing an amazing job of deploying the blanket in such extreme circumstances.

“The video shows the electric vehicle reaching a temperature of at least 900°C. Once deployed, our ‘Fire Cloak’ Electric Vehicle Fire Blanket contained the fire thus minimising collateral damage and allowing time for fire service response. In the process, the fire temperature dropped to 47°C.

“I must stress that we would never advocate using the blanket on such a raging inferno. It is specifically designed to be used to quarantine vehicles in a suspected pre-fire condition.”

Measuring 8 x 6 metres and weighing 24kg, the ‘Fire Cloak’ Electric Vehicle Fire Blanket by Prosol UK is competitively priced with significant discounts available for quantity purchases.

Concludes Andy: “Electric vehicle fires are only set to become more common as more of us switch from traditional petrol and diesel cars. From garages, charging points, shopping centres and car parks to ferry operators, recovery services, airports and road tunnels, having a ‘Fire Cloak’ Electric Vehicle Fire Blanket by Prosol UK to hand at various locations could mean the difference between effectively controlling an electric vehicle fire and experiencing widespread damage and, worst case scenario, loss of life.”
