In response to the increased need for protection in high-temperature applications, BlastTac® has partnered with CarbonX®, a leading provider of fire-resistant fabric, to create FireMax fire resistant curtains. FireMax is applicable to any of our series across the BlastTac line for additional high-temperature, fire, chemical and also arc flash protection.

FireMax is truly non-flammable as our custom woven fabric will not burn, melt, or ignite. Our fabric is lightweight, flexible, odor-resistant and fire-resistant. With a patented EPIC encapsulated barrier of silicone, FireMax fire resistant curtains and blankets are also water resistant and durable in harsh weather conditions. Similarly, FireMax sheds molten metal, flammable liquids and other molten substances. Consumers can also re-use them even after direct flame and extreme heat exposure.

For exclusively fire protection, FireMax now offers its own line of FM Series thermal curtains and blankets. The FM Series also uses Shield X® technology, which provides an additional thermal barrier. Our thermal protection properties will not wash out or wear away. 

Additionally, field tests prove that FireMax is also capable of surviving heat and flame exposure far longer than competitor products. FireMax fabric also continues to protect without melting, dripping or burning.

FireMax is tested and certified to ASTM and NFPA standards at Chesapeake Testing in Maryland, ensuring compliance with the National Fire Protection Association’s rigorous safety standards. Blastac also offers a variety of standard features as well as custom engineered designs including:
