A fire blanket in Pakistan typically costs between PKR 2,500 and PKR 4,500 for common household sizes, although branded or commercial products can cost considerably more. This guide explains the fire blanket price in Pakistan, where to buy one, what to check before you order, which size suits your kitchen or workplace, and how a fire blanket fits alongside extinguishers and a fire alarm system in Pakistan.
Fire safety starts with preparation. Whether you live in a house, run a restaurant, manage an office or operate an industrial facility, the right equipment reduces risk during an emergency. A fire blanket is especially useful in kitchens, where small cooking or clothing fires are most likely.
Fire Blanket Price in Pakistan
Price depends on size, material, manufacturer, certification and supplier. The ranges below are indicative figures from online listings checked in [month year]. Confirm the current price and stock with the seller before ordering.
| Product or size | Indicative price (PKR) |
|---|---|
| Standard 1.2 x 1.8 m blanket | 2,500 to 3,000 |
| 1.8 x 1.8 m blanket | 3,500 to 4,500 |
| Branded or premium blanket | 12,000 or more |
| Flame Defender fire blanket | [PKR ___ for ___ x ___ m] |
A higher price does not automatically mean a better product, and a lower price does not prove a blanket is unsafe. Dimensions, material and verifiable documentation matter more than price alone.
For a home kitchen, a clearly labelled standard-size blanket is usually enough. Restaurants, commercial kitchens and workshops should assess their hazards first. Commercial cooking areas often also need fire suppression systems designed for cooking appliances.
Where to Buy a Fire Blanket in Pakistan
You can buy a fire blanket from a specialist supplier, an online safety store or a marketplace. The best choice depends on your location, quantity and whether the equipment is for a home or a commercial building.
Flame Defender (Islamabad and Rawalpindi)
Flame Defender supplies fire safety equipment in Pakistan, including the Flame Defender fire blanket. Our team can confirm the size, material and [EN 1869 documentation: confirm] before you buy, quote for bulk orders and supply the rest of your safety equipment in one order, including fire extinguishers and detectors. Delivery: [confirm cities or ‘across Pakistan’].
Specialist fire safety suppliers
Specialist suppliers focus on firefighting and workplace safety equipment, so they can usually answer technical questions and supply the other items in your safety plan. Ask for the product dimensions, material, manufacturer and compliance documents, and get a written quotation for commercial orders.
Online marketplaces
Marketplaces such as Daraz list fire blankets from many sellers. They are convenient and offer many price points, but quality and documentation vary widely. Check the seller, dimensions, material, return policy and any evidence of conformity to a recognised standard before paying.
What Is a Fire Blanket?
A fire blanket is a heat-resistant sheet designed to smother certain small fires. It covers the fire and limits the oxygen available to the flames. Most are made from woven fibreglass, sometimes with a protective coating, and are supplied in a compact pouch or container with pull tabs for quick removal.
Common uses include:
- Home kitchens and cooking areas.
- Small restaurants, cafes and food preparation spaces.
- Office kitchens and staff break rooms.
- Workshops and selected industrial areas.
A fire blanket is not a replacement for fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, alarms, sprinklers or an evacuation plan. It is meant for particular small fires, and its suitability depends on the manufacturer’s instructions.
What to Check Before Buying a Fire Blanket
Safety standard. Look for a named manufacturer, model, instructions and the applicable standard. EN 1869 is the recognised standard for fire blankets. If a seller claims compliance, ask for documentation covering the exact product you will receive. Words like ‘fireproof’, ‘premium quality’ or ‘industrial grade’ are not evidence.
Size. A larger blanket covers more area, but it must still be easy to pull out and deploy. Match the size to the kitchen or workspace and follow the manufacturer’s guidance.
Material. Many blankets use fibreglass fabric, some with coatings or layered construction. Check the stated material and temperature limits instead of assuming all blankets protect equally.
Supplier. Choose a seller with clear contact details, transparent product information and sensible answers to technical questions. For commercial purchases, ask for a quotation, documentation and an invoice.
Delivery and returns. Confirm delivery charges, timing and what happens if the item arrives damaged or differs from the listing, especially if you need it ready for an inspection.
Which Fire Blanket Is Right for Your Needs?
- Home kitchens: a clearly labelled blanket with instructions, in a container you can mount near the kitchen exit, not directly beside the cooker where a fire could block access.
- Restaurants and cafes: consider the cooking equipment, oils used and local authority requirements. Commercial kitchens often need additional suppression equipment.
- Offices: suitable for a staff kitchen, as one part of the wider workplace fire safety arrangements.
- Factories and workshops: a fire risk assessment should decide whether a blanket is appropriate. Industrial hazards may need specialised extinguishers or fixed systems.
No single blanket suits every environment.
How to Use a Fire Blanket Safely
Read the manufacturer’s instructions before an emergency. Use a blanket only when the fire is small, the product is suitable for that type of fire and you can act without putting yourself at unacceptable risk. For a small cooking fire:
- Alert others and raise the alarm if needed.
- Call the emergency service (Rescue 1122 where available, or the local fire brigade) if the fire is spreading or you are unsure.
- If it is safe to approach, pull the blanket from its container using the tabs.
- Hold it in front of you as the instructions direct, keeping it between you and the fire.
- Lay it carefully over the fire without reaching across the flames.
- Leave it in place for the time stated in the instructions. Do not lift it to check.
Never throw a blanket across a room, reach over a burning pan, or move a burning pan. Never pour water on burning oil or grease.
If the fire grows, smoke builds up or your escape route is threatened, leave immediately, close doors behind you if it is safe and call for help. Do not risk injury to save property.
Staff in commercial kitchens should be trained so they know when to use a blanket and when evacuation is the safest response.
Can a Fire Blanket Be Reused?
Many fire blankets are single use. After use, the blanket may be damaged or contaminated in ways you cannot see. Do not refold it and return it to service unless the manufacturer states that the specific product can be reused and gives an inspection procedure. Replace blankets that are torn, contaminated, wet or damaged.
Check regularly that the blanket is in its container, the pull tabs are reachable, the packaging is intact and the instructions are readable.
Where to Store a Fire Blanket
Store it where it is easy to see and reach, but not so close to the cooker that a fire would block access. In a kitchen, choose a spot near an exit or a safe approach route. Avoid keeping it behind appliances, in a locked cupboard or under heavy items.
In workplaces, add clear signage, include its location in safety instructions and check it regularly. Locked doors, furniture or stored items should never be able to block it.
Fire Blankets Are One Part of a Fire Safety Plan
Effective protection relies on several measures working together:
- Smoke or heat detection, such as battery operated smoke detectors in homes and small premises.
- A properly designed and maintained fire alarm system. Our fire alarm installation service covers survey, installation and testing.
- Suitable fire extinguishers for your hazards, including NAFFCO fire extinguishers, kept in date through fire extinguisher refilling and testing.
- Clear escape routes, exit signs and emergency lighting.
- Regular inspection of electrical installations and cooking equipment. See our guide to electrical fire safety basics.
- Staff awareness, evacuation planning and drills.
An alarm system only helps if it is correctly designed, installed, tested and maintained. The Building Code of Pakistan, Fire Safety Provisions 2016, is an important reference for building fire safety. Requirements depend on the premises and the authority that approves or inspects them, so consult the applicable code and local authorities. A HSC / fire audit can show where your premises stand.
Buying Fire Blankets in Bulk for Businesses
Restaurants, hotels, schools, factories and offices often need several blankets. Before ordering, list where each one will go and ask the supplier to quote for the exact product and quantity. Ask for:
- Dimensions and material.
- Manufacturer, model and applicable standard, with documents.
- Packaging and mounting arrangements.
- Delivery schedule and total cost.
- Instructions and any available training.
- Replacement policy and future availability.
Keep procurement records and fit the blankets where nothing can block them. To get a quotation for fire blankets and the rest of your safety equipment, contact our team with your locations and quantities. You can also browse our wider range of safety equipment.

Treat a fire blanket as one part of a complete plan: alarms, suitable extinguishers, clear escape routes and an emergency procedure everyone understands.
