Small fire blankets, such as for use in kitchens and around the home are usually made of glass fibre and sometimes Kevlar and are folded into a quick-release contraption for ease of storage.
Larger fire blankets, for use in laboratory and industrial situations, are often made of wool sometimes treated with a flame retardant chemical such as hexafluoro-zirconate and zirconium acetate.
These blankets are usually mounted in a vertical quick-release container so that they can be easily pulled out and wrapped around a person whose clothes are on fire.

Fire blankets, along with fire extinguishers, are fire safety items that can be useful in case of a fire.
These nonflammable materials are stable in temperatures up to 1300°C for Nextel ceramic fibres, 1200°C for glass fibres, Kevlar (480˚C), and wool (570˚C).
These are useful in smothering fires by not allowing any oxygen to the fire. Due to its simplicity, a fire blanket may be more helpful for someone inexperienced with fire extinguishers.
