Introducing SecureBattery – Safe Storage for Lithium-Ion Batteries

Introducing SecureBattery – Safe Storage for Lithium-Ion Batteries

Lithium-ion batteries are everywhere—powering smartphones, laptops, power tools, and even electric vehicles. Their efficiency and high energy density make them indispensable, but they also come with significant safety risks if not handled and stored properly. To mitigate these risks, we introduce SecureBattery, our advanced fire-resistant storage solution.

Available in two ranges—SecureBattery Professional and SecureBattery Lite—these cabinets provide secure, compliant, and reliable storage for lithium-ion batteries. Designed with fire-resistant materials and compliant with EN14470-1 European fire safety standards, they help contain and prevent the spread of fires, protecting both the batteries and their surroundings.

 Understanding the Risks

While lithium-ion batteries offer convenience and power, they are also highly sensitive to heat, damage, and improper charging. When things go wrong, the consequences can be severe, including:

Overheating and Thermal Runaway – If a battery overheats due to overcharging, extreme temperatures, or internal damage, it can trigger thermal runaway—a chain reaction that leads to self-sustaining fires or explosions.

Explosion and Toxic Gases – A damaged or overheated battery can release flammable, toxic gases, further intensifying the fire.

Reignition
– Lithium-ion battery fires can reignite hours or even days after they seem to be extinguished, making them difficult to control with traditional fire suppression methods

Why Secure Storage Matters

Many lithium-ion battery fires result from poor storage conditions. Batteries stored in overcrowded spaces, exposed to heat, or physically damaged pose a major risk. SecureBattery provides a controlled and fire-resistant environment, ensuring that even if a fire starts, it is contained and does not spread to surrounding areas.

Our SecureBattery cabinets are engineered for safety, preventing external fires from reaching the batteries inside and stopping internal fires from spreading. By limiting exposure to oxygen and flammable materials, they minimize the risk of explosion and damage to equipment and property.

 

Protect What Matters with SecureBattery

As lithium-ion batteries continue to power our modern world, safe storage is more important than ever. SecureBattery offers a proactive solution to reduce risks and protect both businesses and individuals from potentially catastrophic battery fires.
