Burnshield’s ground-breaking original product, the Fire Trauma Blanket, was developed in conjunction with Wool Board and CSIR for the emergency services market. This versatile application is used as protection for rescue workers entering or exiting a fire area. It can also be used to extinguish flames on a burn casualty and for immediate pain relief using a large dressing if required and can be used to start the healing process while casualties are being transported to emergency care units. The blanket is made of 100% wool and woven into a specially designed interconnecting cellular structure for maximum effectiveness. The flexible shoulder bag provides hands-free portability and storage.

It is a drape impregnated with a sterile gel, presented in aluminium packaging. It absorbs and dissipates heat to minimise burn damage. It provides cooling to reduce pain and shock. It is an extremely easy product to apply. It does not stick to the wound. Gel is a natural antibacterial. Reduces infection. Non-toxic. Non-irritating. It is safe to use in children. 1st degree, 2nd degree and 3rd degree burns are used safely.
