Features and Benefits of Wool Fire Blankets

When it comes to fire safety personal protection blankets, it’s worth noting that not all materials are created equal. With its natural fire-resistant qualities, wool stands out as a leader in the field.

  • Durability: A wool fire blanket will serve you well for many years with the right care and maintenance. 
  • Environmentally friendly: As a natural fibre, wool is biodegradable and sustainable. 

Choosing the right fire blanket can make all the difference during unexpected crises, and wool certainly stands out as a top choice. Find the perfect personal protection blanket here at Creswick.
