Why are personal protection blankets important?
• Protection from radiant heat
• Protection from ember attack
A personal protection blanket will help protect you from radiant heat. Radiant heat is the heat you feel from a fire and it’s the biggest killer in a fire.
personal protection blankets will also help protect you from ember attacks, such as burning twigs,leaves and pieces of debris landing and catching fire.
