The bomb suppression blankets are used in public areas to suppress the blast fragmentation that causes most damages and injuries. The multiple layer ballistic filler is enclosed in an outer cover, which is fitted with lifting straps. Both blanket and containment ring fold into a compact, easily carried bag. The blanket is then placed over the containment ring and bomb. The ring directs the force of the blast upwards into the blanket, which contains most of the fragments created by the explosion. Two or more containment rings and blankets can be used to suppress larger explosive devices.
