VLITEX - Extinguishing blankets for electric cars and battery fires

VLITEX - Expert in the field of technical textiles

VLITEX has been working in the technical textiles market for over 20 years. The VLITEX fire blankets were created through the development of innovative products made of technical glass. A special glass fiber fabric prevents the supply of oxygen. The fire is thus smothered under the fire blanket or kept under control in the case of battery fires. In addition, both the ambient temperature and smoke development are significantly reduced. All VLITEX fire blankets for electric cars and Li-ion batteries are environmentally friendly, resource-saving, maintenance-free, temperature-, weather- and heat-resistant.

Extinguishing blankets for electric cars and battery fires from VLITEX

The VLITEX fire blankets are made of special glass fibers and coated with a dense silicone coating so that battery fires of all kinds, including e.g. from electric cars, can be reliably contained. The M versions of the VLITEX fire blankets offered here are reusable and therefore particularly attractively priced compared to many alternatives that are intended for single use. Further advantages of the VLITEX Premium M fire blankets at a glance:

• Easy handling without lengthy instruction
• Smoke-insulating
• Low maintenance
• Can be reused several times
• Weatherproof (can be used in both summer and winter)
• Environmentally friendly because the environment is not contaminated during extinguishing

Use as a preventive measure for electric cars involved in accidents

In addition to acute firefighting, i.e. extinguishing fires in electric cars or other batteries, VLITEX fire blankets are perfect for preventive use: The extinguishing blanket spread over an e-car involved in an accident prevents a larger fire from spreading to the surrounding area, while the vehicle under the blanket can burn out. In particular, the alternative extinguishing measures with a lot of water that are otherwise used by fire departments to extinguish batteries are not necessary. With a permanent temperature resistance of 1000°C and peak loads of 1300°C, they are not only ideal for extinguishing electric cars, but also for vehicles with conventional combustion engines.
