Packaging And Crating Technologies (PACT), a leader in industrial fire safety solutions, has unveiled its advanced line of lithium-ion battery fire containment products designed to help organizations safely respond to and mitigate thermal runaway events involving lithium batteries.
“As the use of lithium-ion batteries continues to expand across electric vehicles, e-bikes, consumer electronics, warehouses, medical devices, and energy storage systems, fire safety professionals are facing increasing challenges associated with battery-related incidents,” said Rodger Mort, chief operating officer at Packaging And Crating Technologies. “Unlike traditional fires, lithium battery fires can reignite, release hazardous gases, and spread rapidly if not properly contained.”
PACT’s specialized containment solutions are engineered to help reduce the spread of fire, limit property damage, improve emergency response effectiveness, and enhance workplace safety. The company’s fire-suppressant product line includes ThermoShieldTM, a thin, paper material coated with special ink that releases a moisture barrier around any ignited batteries, TR SleeveTM, which mitigates thermal runaway propagation between lithium battery cells within electric vehicles, electric bikes and battery packs, TR EnvelopeTM, which safely transports and stores smaller devices such as cell phones, pagers, smartwatches and other items that use rechargeable A-D batteries,
and the PACT Lion-X TM Fire Extinguisher, a pre-mixed, water-based solution that quenches lithium battery fires upwards of 1,600 degrees within seconds, while eliminating the release of toxic gases into the environment.
“Lithium battery safety has become one of the most urgent fire protection challenges facing industries today,” adds Mort. “Our mission is to provide organizations with practical, reliable solutions that help contain dangerous battery incidents before they escalate into catastrophic events.”
The company’s solutions are designed for use across multiple industries, including:
- Electric vehicle and e-bike manufacturers
- Warehousing and logistics facilities
- Waste management companies
- Aviation and transportation sectors
- Municipal fire departments and emergency responders
- Consumer electronics and battery storage operations
According to fire safety experts, lithium-ion battery incidents have increased significantly in recent years due to the rapid adoption of rechargeable battery technologies in everyday products and industrial applications.
PACT works closely with safety professionals, engineers, and emergency response teams to develop products that align with evolving fire safety protocols and real-world operational needs.
Key features of PACT’s solutions include:
- High-temperature resistant materials
- Rapid deployment and containment capabilities
- Durable and industrial-grade construction
- Reusable and recyclable materials
- Portable and scalable designs
- Solutions for storage, transport, and emergency response
- Compliance-focused engineering and testing standards
“Our products are designed not only to help protect property, but more importantly to help protect lives,” concludes Mort. “We believe preparedness and proper containment solutions are critical as lithium battery usage continues to grow worldwide.”
