Fire Blanket Testing
Simple Equipment, Serious Consequences If It Fails
Fire blankets are often the first line of response to a small kitchen or equipment fire, and they’re frequently the most neglected item in a workplace’s fire safety inventory. A blanket that’s been stored for years without inspection may have deteriorated fibres, a compromised seal, or be mounted somewhere staff can’t quickly access. Under Australian fire safety standards, all fire blankets require regular inspection to confirm condition, accessibility, and correct signage. Our Test and Tag Melbourne technicians carry out fire blanket inspections across commercial and industrial sites, ensuring every unit is documented and compliant.
- Visual inspection of blanket condition, including fibre integrity and housing
- Check for moisture ingress, contamination, or physical damage to the unit
- Verification of correct mounting height and accessible location
- Signage check to confirm the fire blanket location is clearly marked
- Confirmation that the pull tab and release mechanism operate freely
- Service label applied with inspection date and next due date
- Same-day digital compliance record for your safety file
- Damaged or deteriorated units flagged for replacement with a written recommendation
Fire Blanket Testing
You Won't Know It's Compromised Until You Actually Need It
Fire blankets rarely show obvious signs of deterioration from the outside. The housing looks intact, the signage is still on the wall, and there’s no indication that anything is wrong, until the blanket is pulled and it’s either degraded, contaminated, or impossible to deploy quickly under pressure. Regular inspection is the only way to confirm your blankets are still fit for purpose.
We inspect fire blankets at workplaces across Melbourne, hospitality venues, commercial kitchens, schools, childcare centres, aged care facilities, and any site where a fire blanket forms part of the emergency response plan. Fast, thorough, and fully documented.
Everything We Offer
What's Covered in Every Fire Blanket Inspection
Condition & Integrity Check
The blanket itself is inspected for fibre deterioration, moisture damage, contamination, and any physical compromise that would prevent it from performing correctly in a fire situation.
Mounting & Accessibility Audit
A fire blanket mounted too high, too low, or blocked by equipment is a hazard in its own right. We verify correct mounting height, clear access, and compliant location signage on every visit.
Compliant Service Documentation
Every inspected fire blanket receives a service label and is included in your same-day digital compliance report, giving you a clear, auditable record of inspection dates and unit condition.
