Abstract

A fire protection container 106 for a gas bottle 126 e.g. containing liquified propane or butane gas, is made from one or more layers of material, including at least one layer of intumescent material 112, which may be provided on a support of a metal mesh or sheet metal sleeve 114. One or more layers of fire retardant foam 116 may be included, which may be separated by a layer of aluminium foil. A further protective sleeve e.g. of metal such as aluminium, may be provided between the bottle and container wall. The container may be separable into body and lid parts.
