FireCape Fire Containment Cover

Our Fire Containment solutions, a result of more than 5 years development, testing and system design. In answer to the demands of the industry and its regulators, we were looking for a cost effective solution which can contain the most severe fires including those resulting from lithium Ion & metal batteries.With our Fire Containment Covers, Bags and ULD container kits we guarantee peace of mind to you and your crew in the event of a cargo fire.
The Fire Containment solutions acts as a two way barrier to contain a fire without relying on suffocation of the fire, providing valuable time for a pilot to safely land the aircraft. In addition of being durable and easy to deploy, all our solutions far exceeds the rigorous performance specifications proposed by the EASA, FAA and leading cargo carriers.

Design Features

Our design utilize  a inovative cross technology  with overlapping corners and easy to use closures. based on 25 year of aircargo experiance.  Fabricated from the most technologically advanced fabrics available and maximum strength, high temperature sewing threads, these structures are intended to tolerate even the most extreme conditions. Our solutions have been tested with up to 9000 Lithium ion cells.

FireCape Fire Containment FCC’s/ FCB’s and FCK’s  are available in deferent styles: A single layer construction  TSO C203 certified and a 2.0 three-layer advanced composite. The three-layer model offers extended protection during an extreme fire caused by the most challenging fuel sources. All covers feature patented SOC, a high temperature polymer coated techfabric with a proprietary overcoat.
