Fire blankets are used to smother small fires by cutting off the fire's oxygen supply, helping to extinguish flames and prevent the fire from spreading further. They are particularly useful for fires involving cooking oils, small household fires, or to protect someone while escaping from a fire by wrapping the blanket around them.
