Fireguard: Aluminized covers to Protect Art & Valuable Assets

Emergency protective covers for artwork & Cultural Heritage

— About Fireguard
— About Fireguard

Cultural heritage is increasingly exposed to elements that can cause its loss or deterioration. Developed in close collaboration with leading French cultural institutions and first responders, OTEGO created FIREGUARD, an aluminized emergency cover for artwork and valuable objects.

FIREGUARD protects against radiant heat, smoke and soot, and water. It is lightweight and easy to deploy, available in several sizes by object type, from small sculptures to large wall-hung paintings.
