Using BURNFREE Fire/Trauma Blankets
BURNFREEFire/Trauma Blankets provide physical protection from fires. When draped over the head and body, fire-resistantBURNFREEblankets are a protective shield for a rescuer or a person trapped by fire. The blankets also can be thrown over a burning area to extinguish flames and thereby create an escape route.

For immediate first aid treatment, the blankets can be wrapped around a person whose clothes are burning or who has sustained a burn injury.BURNFREEblankets will instantly extinguish fires, while at the same time, wetting and cooling the fuel, which is usually clothing. This use ofBURNFREEblankets reduces physiological and psychological trauma by providing immediate cooling, soothing, and moistening of the burn.

BURNFREEblankets can be used to reduce the pain and trauma of wounds from fires, flames, scalds, chemical, and electrical injuries. However, with chemical burns, the wound must be thoroughly irrigated, and preferably neutralized, before using the blanket. With electrical burns, the current must be turned off before using the blanket since theBURNFREEsolution is water-based and conducts electricity.

BURNFREEblankets can be used to extinguish fires, including pan or grease fires which occur in the kitchen. Before using for this purpose, turn off the electricity or gas. Place the blanket over the fire in a motion away from the body. After waiting for several minutes, the blanket can be removed.

TheBURNFREEHydrogel Survival Fire/Trauma Blanket is packed in a durable, flexible barrel bag with sealable double zip openers. The bag's flexibility makes it comfortable to carry. It also has a handle strap to hang the bag from the shoulder or around the body, freeing the hands.
