To select your product you need to review these fire standards so that relevant products are used as per the user application. Fire Tests Certificates for Fire Blankets & Welding Blankets IS 11871 : Vertical Flammability This is an Indian fire test standard where the fabric sample is exposed to a vertical flame for 12 seconds and para

If you are working near hot metal or hot rubber or any hot chemical, there is a constant danger of hot splash, fire and extreme radiant heat. It is in such cases that you need an Aluminized based Safety PPE such as an Aluminized Apron, Aluminized back open Coat, Aluminized Long Coat or Full Aluminized Fire Proximity Suit. The Aluminized Safety Apparel is made with an outer layer of Aluminized Fabric which can either be Aluminized Fiberglass or Aluminized Kevlar. This outer la

For workers and managers, facing the radiant heat and the dangers of molten metal splash from a furnace or in a foundry is a daily experience and hence the most basic protection can be provided by an Aluminized Fiberglass Apron. With an outer layer of EN ISO 11612 certified Aluminized Fiberglass and an inner liner of Fire retardant Cotton, the apron prevents direct contact of molten metal to the clothes of the worker. Also the outer aluminized layer reflects the radiant heat

Below is a case study of RNG Performance Material's supply of Aluminized Coat used to protect workers from the radiant heat and fire hazards involved in melting of metal at very high temperatures. The Aluminized Fiberglass outer shell of these Aluminized PPE reflect upto 90% of the radiant heat involved in the smelting process even at radiant temperatures as high as 1600 degree Celsius, allowing workers to remain close to the smelters for periodic inspection and checks.
