Product information „Fingerhuth fire containment blanket / extinguishing blanket S-TYPE Battery“
Overview
The S-TYPE battery fire containment blanket has been specially developed for fire containment in lithium-ion batteries and high-voltage battery systems. It serves to reduce the effects of a battery fire, contain flames and flying sparks, and limit the spread of heat to the surrounding area.
The blanket consists of a high-temperature-resistant silicate fabric with a vermiculite coating on both sides and can withstand temperatures of up to 1,200 °C over the long term. This makes it particularly suitable for use with electric vehicles, battery storage systems and individual lithium-ion batteries.
Unlike conventional fire blankets, the S-TYPE has been specially developed to meet the requirements of modern lithium batteries. It supports controlled fire containment and helps to protect people, buildings and property from the consequences of thermal runaway.

Scope of use & application
The S-TYPE battery fire suppression blanket is suitable for numerous applications involving lithium-ion batteries:
- Electric vehicles and high-voltage vehicles
- Battery and energy storage systems
- Workshops and service centres
- Car manufacturers and suppliers
- Recycling and waste disposal companies
- Fire brigades and emergency services
- Logistics and warehousing areas
- Testing and development centres
The blanket is placed over the affected battery system or vehicle and serves to contain flames, heat and ejected particles as locally as possible. This helps to protect surrounding areas and reduce consequential damage.

Safety features
High-temperature-resistant material
The S-TYPE fire containment blanket consists of a special silicate fabric with a vermiculite coating. The material is designed for temperatures of up to 1,200 °C and offers high thermal resistance in the event of battery fires.
Flame and heat containment
The blanket helps to contain flames, flying sparks and radiant heat. This helps to reduce the spread of a fire to neighbouring vehicles, machinery or building structures.
Mechanically robust fabric
With a high tensile strength of over 2,700 N/5 cm in the warp direction and over 2,200 N/5 cm in the weft direction, the blanket is also suitable for demanding operating conditions.
Non-combustible material
The material meets the requirements of fire class A1 in accordance with DIN EN 13501-1 and is therefore classified as a non-combustible building material.
Certifications & tests
The S-TYPE battery fire barrier ceiling has been tested in accordance with relevant standards and test procedures:
- Tested in accordance with DIN SPEC 91489:2024
- Tested in accordance with DIN EN 13501-1
- Tested in accordance with DIN 54345-1
These tests confirm the blanket’s suitability for use with lithium-ion batteries and high-voltage vehicles.
Instructions for use & operation
- The fire containment blanket is designed to contain and shield a fire incident.
- It is not a substitute for a risk assessment or fire safety measures.
- The blanket should be positioned completely over the affected object.
- After use, the blanket must be checked for damage.
- For professional use, it is recommended that the blanket be integrated into existing fire safety and emergency plans.
- The appropriate blanket size should be selected based on the specific application.
