Managing the risks associated with
Lithium-Ion batteries.
The only certified locker solution
in compliance with the strictest fire safety regulations.
Meet S4FE
Lithium-ion batteries have become ubiquitous in our daily lives, found in everything from smartphones to electric vehicles. However, as their use becomes more widespread, so too does the risk to companies and public spaces.
Lithium-Ion batteries have the potential to ignite spontaneously under certain conditions and are very difficult to extinguish.
The locker for today and tomorrow
The increasing popularity of e-mobility, including electric vehicles, scooters, bikes, and even skateboards, is well-known. A comprehensive charging infrastructure, both in private, public, and professional settings, is essential to maintain a sustainable and emission-free transportation system. Additionally, the widespread use of Lithium-Ion batteries in communication devices such as smartphones and laptops only adds to the potential hazard.
The presence of Lithium-Ion batteries on a property presents significant risks, and insurance companies may be hesitant to provide coverage for fires caused by these batteries.
Our recommendation is to shut the door on these risks by choosing a fire-safe certified storage solution with integrated charging infrastructure.
Time to quantify the risks!
In the event of a defect, impact or degradation that triggers a Lithium-Ion battery fire, the release of highly toxic substances such as lithium hydroxide is possible. The fire can also rapidly reach temperatures exceeding 1000°C, causing it to spread much more quickly compared to a conventional fire. Furthermore, the presence of multiple fuel cells within a Lithium-Ion battery increases the likelihood of reignition, making it impossible to fully extinguish the fire with a standard fire extinguisher. In severe cases, a Lithium-Ion battery fire can even result in an explosion.
+ 45
In 2022, there were over 45 recorded fires caused by e-bike batteries in Flanders and the Netherlands alone.
18 x 3
In New York, the number of lithium fires almost tripled in one year, from 18 to 56.
66 + 5
Due to 66 reported injuries and 5 fatalities resulting from e-bike fires in 2022, New York is considering a ban on e-bikes in over 177,000 residential units.
340 / 16
From 2006 to 2021, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recorded 340 incidents of smoking or burning Lithium-Ion batteries, averaging over one occurrence per month on flights.
