What happens when an EV catches fire in an underground garage?

We solved the e-bike problem by keeping them out of buildings. But today, EVs are parked right next to each other—below ground, where fire trucks can’t easily reach and flames spread fast.

A single thermal event can put dozens of vehicles at risk. The heat alone can damage adjacent cars before firefighters even arrive.

So what actually works?

The Suntex EV Fire Containment Blanket is engineered for this exact scenario.

  • 60-minute protection – Contains flames long enough for evacuation, vehicle removal, and emergency response.

  • Heat reduction – Lowers surrounding temperatures, protecting nearby vehicles and creating a safe path for responders.

  • Micro-permeable design – Unlike sealed blankets that risk gas buildup and flashovers, it vents combustible gases in a controlled manner. Tested with no bulging, no explosion.

  • Reusable – Withstands extreme heat while maintaining structural integrity. One blanket, multiple uses.

EV adoption is accelerating. Underground parking is here to stay. It’s time we close the safety gap—with tools that are proven, practical, and built for what comes next.
