The tear-resistant blanket is designed to find a balance between comfort and safety for psychiatric patients and inmates. The soft material could stimulate the reduction of stress. The weight of the blanket also creates a weighted effect.
The blankets are quilted with strong and powerful yarns to make the product as safe as possible. With its unrivalled tear strength, the ‘molest resistance’ is extremely high. And that is not all. The Tricot Extreme blanket actually gets stronger the more you use it. In fact, its tear strength increases after 5 washes.
The blanket, also known as a suicide prevention blanket, offers warmth and comfort without you having to compromise on safety. While we have combined a heavy fabric and proper stepping techniques, you reduce the chances of inmates or patients being able to use the blanket as a weapon or hanging mechanism.
Yes, the blanket has been tested on fire retardancy according to DIN EN ISO 12952-1:2010, also known as the cigarette test. The test report is available upon request.
