The vast majority of domestic fires occur as a result of cooking. Stove and oven fires can quickly escalate out of control, putting both life and property in serious danger. It is highly recommended to always have stored, a Fire Blanket that is close to hand in the case of an emergency. Fire Blankets are particularly useful for smothering cooking oil fires, fat pan fires or for wrapping around a person whose clothing is on fire. When completely covering the fire, the Fire Blanket will starve oxygen supply to the fire helping to extinguish it.  

Firex Fire Blankets are ideal for use in the home, caravan or boat. Our fibreglass-woven lightweight Fire Blankets are supplied in a protective pouch with eyelet for mounting and includes easy-to-use quick release pull tabs. Firex Fire Blankets are certified to AS/NZS 3504.

Fire hose reels are located to provide an accessible and controlled supply of water to combat everyday fire risks (A Class type). A control nozzle attached to the end of the hose enables the operator to control the direction and flow of water to the fire. Firex offer a range of fixed and swing arm hose reels, together with an array of related hose reel accessories. Firex Fire Hose Reels are certified to AS/NZS 1221.

For keeping fire extinguishers readily visible and easily accessed, a fire cabinet is ideal. Our range of fire extinguisher cabinets includes models that are easy-to-use, sturdy and durable. Each Firex cabinet is constructed from high quality sheet metal finished in high gloss baked enamel paint with silk screen white detail and signage.

Each of our heavy-duty covers is made of acrylic-coated polyester and equipped with hook-and-loop closures.

Fire safety in workplaces and public buildings starts with fire equipment location signage. In case of fire, being able to quickly locate a fire extinguisher or blanket can save lives and property.

Signs and labels can be ordered in flat, panoramic or flags styles.

Without the appropriate extinguishing agent, a fire extinguisher can be ineffective in putting out a fire. Specific extinguishing agents are suited to each class of fire. Keeping this in mind when selecting a fire extinguisher for your location is highly important. To identify which class of fire an extinguisher is made for, you’ll find a color-coded box indicating the type of extinguishing agent it contains. Our Firex range of extinguishing agents includes bulk wet chemical, bulk dry chemical powder, AFFF bulk concentrates and more.

Clearly marking workplace and public building doors, stairwells, hallways and elevators with emergency and exist signs is imperative for safety.
