Radiant heat shields are designed to protect firefighting crews from the intense radiant heat encountered during bushfire fire fighting operations. By reducing heat transfer into vehicle cabins, these specialised thermal protection systems help improve crew safety and maintain operational capability in extreme fire conditions.

Our heat shields solutions are backed by more than a decade and a half of practical experience in the development and application of high-temperature textile systems for emergency service vehicles.

HeatSafe Systems founder has been involved in the development of fire tanker radiant heat shield systems since 2010. During his time working within the technical textile industry, he played a key role in the design, development, material selection, prototyping, testing, and field implementation of some of the earliest dedicated radiant heat shielding systems used on Australian firefighting vehicles.

This hands-on experience provided a deep understanding of the thermal challenges faced by firefighting crews and the performance requirements of heat shielding systems operating in real-world bushfire conditions. Today, that knowledge continues to influence the development of practical, effective thermal protection solutions that help safeguard Australian firefighters.

These radiant heat shields are available to a large combination of makes and models and cab configurations including:
