In smelting plants—especially during forging—workers are constantly exposed to numerous high-temperature sources. For example:
The walls of electric furnaces can reach 100–180°C
The charging door can reach 220–260°C
Non-ferrous metals during forging can reach hundreds to over a thousand degrees Celsius
Typical Melting & Smelting Temperatures of Common Metals
| Metal | Melting Point | Smelting Temperature |
| Copper | ~1085°C | 1100–1200°C |
| Iron | ~1500°C | 1400–1550°C |
| Zinc | ~419°C | 400–500°C |
| Magnesium | ~650°C | 680–720°C |
| Aluminum | ~660°C | 700–900°C |
Major Hazards in High-Temperature Smelting
1. Radiant Heat
Workshops filled with high-temperature equipment continuously emit radiant heat, leading to:
Increased body temperature
Headaches, dizziness
Heat-related illnesses such as heat exhaustion or heat stroke
Long-term eye damage, including occupational cataracts
2. Burns from Molten Metal Splash
During tapping or pouring, temperatures around the furnace can reach over 1,000°C.
If a ladle overturns or a worker slips, molten metal or slag can cause severe burns instantly.
A Fabric Engineered for the High-Temperature Smelting Industry
Designed for environments with extreme heat sources, this aluminized protective fabric effectively shields against radiant heat, contact heat, sudden flames, and molten splash—reducing the risk of burns during daily operations.
01 Advantages of LifeSafe® HS
High-performance base fabric:
Made from advanced fibers with excellent flame resistance, high-temperature tolerance, and strong physical durability. The fabric remains stable and does not easily become brittle near intense heat sources.
Advanced aluminized coating:
Provides outstanding reflectivity and flexibility. The aluminum layer is durable, resistant to flaking, and maintains long-term performance.
Certified protection:
Meets EN ISO 11612 (European standard) and GB 38453 (China national standard).
Lightweight and flexible:
Compared with products of similar protection levels, LIFE SAFE® HS is lighter and softer, ensuring better comfort without compromising safety.
