NFPA 701

Published 14.02.2024 by Maiken Refsdal

We are proud to share that our Car Pro X and Car Standard fire blankets meet the requirements of NFPA 701, one of the most recognized standards for flame resistance in textiles.

NFPA 701

NFPA 701 sets the benchmark for how fabrics should perform when exposed to flame, helping reduce fire hazards in critical environments. Successfully testing to this standard confirms that our products align with rigorous safety expectations—providing peace of mind to our customers and affirming our dedication to excellence.

Looking Ahead

Moving forward, this will drive us to continue innovating and raising the bar for safety and quality in our industry. We are devoted to not only meeting but exceeding our customers' expectations and the demanding requirements of today's safety-conscious world.
