Forestry Supplies New Generation Forest Fire Protection Shelters, Large
DESCRIPTION
The New Generation Forest Fire Protection Shelter (Large) is a vital piece of safety equipment designed to provide life-saving protection during forest fire emergencies. Tailored for individuals taller than 6 feet 1 inch or with a girth larger than 53 inches, this shelter is engineered to shield against direct flames, radiant heat, and smoke.
The shelter’s outer aluminum foil layer reflects 95% of radiant heat, while the woven silica cloth slows heat transfer. Its inner fiberglass layer, laminated with aluminum foil, ensures that heat is not reradiated back toward the user. Together, these materials provide a robust barrier, maximizing protection in extreme conditions.
With shake handles for rapid deployment and rounded ends that scatter radiant heat, the shelter is both easy to use and highly effective. When not in use, it folds compactly into a nylon carrying case with a hard plastic liner, ensuring portability and durability. Whether you're a firefighter or working in wildfire-prone areas, this shelter is a critical tool for staying safe.
