Sabafer is the exclusive importer for Italy of Bridgehill fire blankets, an innovative product that allows for timely intervention in the event of fires caused by battery combustion. Thanks to these blankets, made with aerospace-derived materials, it is therefore possible to avoid potentially catastrophic consequences, especially if they occur in closed spaces, such as warehouses, underground car parks and ferries.

From electric or hybrid cars to forklifts, Bridgehill fire blankets are the fastest, simplest and safest way to contain and extinguish this type of fire. This product is currently the only concrete solution for working safely with lithium batteries and electric vehicles, as water and fire extinguishers are in no way effective in the event of a fire caused by lithium batteries.

It should also be taken into account that this type of fire reaches higher temperatures than a “classic” fire, and releases fumes that are highly toxic to human health and the environment: thanks to Bridgehill blankets, it will be possible to contain these toxic fumes and significantly shield the heat emitted, preventing it from hitting nearby vehicles or structures, thus causing a potentially disastrous chain reaction.

This product is currently the only solution capable of effectively managing fires in electric and hybrid vehicles, but not only that: the blankets are equally effective even if applied to a thermal vehicle, thus avoiding the use of water to put out the flames. On average, to put out a fire on a thermal vehicle, 2,000 to 3,000 liters of water are needed.

Employment areas

In parking garages and other places with a high concentration of cars, there’s always a risk of car fire and spread of fire. The Bridgehill Car Fire Blanket should be easily accessible on every parking level.
On a car ferry, it’s crucial to isolate fire and smoke quickly to prevent the fire from spreading and avoid panic among passengers. A Bridgehill Car Fire Blanket should be available on every car deck.
A Bridgehill Car Fire Blanket should be easily accessible at both gas stations and electric car charging stations. At a gas station, it can prevent the fire from spreading to the gasoline. At charging stations, it’s the only solution that can quickly and safely isolate the fire in lithium-powered vehicles.
Cars with errors or cars that have recently been involved in an accident have a greater chance of self-igniting. A Bridgehill Car Fire Blanket should be easily available at any car repair shop, paint shop or workshop.
Rescue and repair vehicles regularly transport broken or damaged cars, including cars that have been involved in an accident or fire. It’s therefore important to have a Bridgehill Car Fire Blanket easily accessible inside the rescue car.
In road tunnels, it’s crucial to isolate smoke and toxic gases from car fires quickly, as they pose a danger to people inside the tunnel. Bridgehill Car Fire Blankets should be available at regular intervals throughout the tunnel.
Many cars are parked outside of airport terminals. Inside the terminal building, luggage cars, forklifts and other vehicles can be at risk of fire. Airports should have a number of Bridgehill Car Fire Blankets near entrances and throughout the building.
