Let’s Take A Closer Look

Is It Water Resistant?

Fire is not the only thing your fireproof document bag should stand up against. To be a truly effective protection mechanism it must also protect against water.

The Fire-SAFE has undergone immersion testing in independent laboratories to ensure that valuables inside are protected from water ingress.

Has It Been Independently Tested?

When selecting a fire resistant document bag, it’s important to know whether the materials and product’s design has been vetted by an independent authority is to ensure that they are able to withstand the conditions they are (supposedly) built to resist. If they have not been tested, then customers cannot be assured of their quality and their lack of fire/water resistance qualities beg the question whether it’s worth using it all?

The Fire-SAFE has been tested by independent laboratories to ensure it’s premium quality.

Does It Have A Great Closure System?

One of the most critical components on any fireproof document bag is it closure system. This is the seal that closes the actual bag. It’s important to note that the product is built to withstand temperatures and protect the valuables inside. If a bag does not contain an adequate closure system that is capable of keeping the heat out, then the rest of the bags quality becomes irrelevant because the heat has an easy access point to gain entry and start to damage the valuables inside.

The Fire-SAFE features, a dual closure system utilising both heavy duty zip and a hook and loop elements. This dual system was built to protect this vulnerable point, and ensure the product retains its fire resistant qualities.

What Material Is It Made From?

Another critical element to consider when assessing the overall quality of the fireproof document bag you are considering is the material that it is made of. Cheaper solutions utilise a pure fibreglass material which is both less capable of dealing with heat and can actually be more dangerous as these bags often come with a warning that the fibreglass can shed. These bags often come with a warning that users should wash their hands after holding a product each time.

The Fire-SAFE is made from a combination of premium, fibreglass, silicon and aluminium combined together to create a truly effective fire resistant solution that will protect your valuables long after a pure fibreglass solution would have failed.

Fire Resistant To What °C?

It would seem the most obvious of questions one would consider when choosing which fireproof document bag to purchase, but it can often be overlooked. This question is what degrees °C is this fireproof document bag tested to? The temperature at which the bag will fail is critical to its overall quality, so it’s important that you understand how much protection the product will actually give your valuables. If they are not sharing this information then this is cause for concern as it likely means that it has not been tested, or the result was unfavourable.

The Fire-SAFE has been independently tested to withstand up to 1100°C.
