🔥🔋 WE HEAR ABOUT LITHIUM-ION BATTERY FIRES DAILY. WHY AREN’T WE HEARING MORE ABOUT THEM?

At Fireblock, we hear about lithium-ion battery fires on a daily basis. Yet, many incidents appear to receive little media attention, leaving the public unaware of the growing risks associated with lithium-ion batteries.

We agree with this post: underreporting is a serious concern, and greater awareness, accurate reporting and effective fire suppression are essential.

The growing awareness of these risks is reflected in our business. We are seeing increased sales of our Fireblock Lithium fire extinguishers, tested at RISE Research Institutes of Sweden and evaluated against NTA 8133 requirements, with retesting undertaken.

We are also experiencing a significant upswing in demand for our lithium fire suppression systems across:

🏢 Corporate and commercial facilities
🏡 Residential solar and battery storage installations
🖥️ Data centres and critical infrastructure

Why? Because lithium-ion battery fires present unique challenges. Our Fireblock suppression gel is designed to encapsulate and cool batteries, helping to limit heat transfer and prevent thermal propagation — the spread of dangerous heat from one battery cell to another.

As battery storage, electric vehicles and energy-intensive infrastructure become increasingly common, the question is no longer whether we should take these risks seriously. It is whether we are adequately prepared.

At Fireblock, we believe awareness must lead to action — and fire suppression solutions must be supported by credible testing and evidence.

🔥 Fire safety cannot wait for the next headline.

🚨🔥 TSHWANE FIRE DEPARTMENT TAKES ACTION ON LITHIUM-ION FIRE SAFETY! 🔥🚒

THE FIRE RISKS ARE CHANGING. ARE WE PREPARED?

Today, FIREBLOCK is proud to welcome members of the Tshwane Fire Department for a hands-on learning experience focused on one of the fastest-growing fire safety challenges — LITHIUM-ION BATTERY FIRES! 🔋🔥
With the introduction of the NEW ISO 3941:2026 CLASS L FIRE CLASSIFICATION, lithium-ion battery fires are now officially recognised as a distinct fire category.

Our visitors are gaining valuable first-hand insight into:
✅ The dangers of lithium-ion battery fires and thermal runaway.
✅ What actually happens during a lithium-ion battery fire.
✅ The challenges firefighters face when controlling and suppressing these fires.
✅ The importance of prevention, early intervention and effective suppression solutions.
✅ What fire risk assessors should be considering when evaluating facilities containing lithium-ion batteries, EVs and energy storage systems.

👏 A HUGE COMPLIMENT TO THE TSHWANE FIRE DEPARTMENT!
This is a fantastic initiative! Taking the time to understand these emerging risks, experience demonstrations and explore preventative technologies shows a proactive commitment to protecting lives, property and communities.

Fire safety is no longer just about fighting fires. It's about understanding the risks BEFORE a fire starts!

At FIREBLOCK, we believe that education, practical experience and the right technology are essential to meeting tomorrow's fire risks.

👉 FOLLOW FIREBLOCK for real lithium-ion fire demonstrations, the latest developments in Class L fire safety and innovative fire prevention and suppression solutions.

🔥 THE FUTURE OF FIRE SAFETY STARTS WITH KNOWLEDGE!

🚨🔥 ARE YOU ISO 3941:2026 CLASS L READY? 🔥🚨

LITHIUM-ION BATTERY FIRES ARE DIFFERENT — AND NOW THE WORLD OFFICIALLY RECOGNISES IT!

🌍 The new ISO 3941:2026 international standard introduces CLASS L, a dedicated fire classification for lithium-ion battery fires.

⚠️ THE QUESTION IS: HAS YOUR BUSINESS UPDATED ITS FIRE RISK ASSESSMENT?

If your business operates electric vehicles, forklifts, battery storage systems, charging stations or lithium-powered equipment, you need to understand these unique fire risks.

🧯 DON'T RELY ON ORDINARY FIRE EXTINGUISHERS FOR AN EXTRAORDINARY FIRE RISK!

✅ Fireblock® Lithium Gel — specialised fire suppression technology.
✅ SANS 1910 BSI Kitemark certified extinguisher.
✅ NTA 8133 tested for lithium-ion battery fire performance.
✅ Designed for rapid cooling, flame suppression and reducing thermal runaway propagation risks.

🔥 NEW FIRE CLASS. NEW AWARENESS. THE RIGHT FIRE PROTECTION MATTERS.

WOULD YOU BUY A CAR WITHOUT A ROADWORTHY CERTIFICATE? 🚗

THEN WHY BUY AN UNCERTIFIED LITHIUM-ION FIRE EXTINGUISHER? 🔥
DON'T BUY PROMISES. BUY CERTIFIED PROTECTION!

In South Africa, we demand safety standards for our vehicles, electrical installations and buildings. Why should fire extinguishers be any different?
Some suppliers promise that certification is "coming soon".
A PROMISE IS NOT A CERTIFICATE!

Purchasing an uncertified fire extinguisher could expose you to serious risks:
❌ SERVICING PROBLEMS – Your extinguisher may not qualify for compliant servicing.
❌ INSURANCE RISKS – Non-compliant fire safety equipment could put your insurance claim at risk.
❌ REGULATORY RISKS – Equipment that does not meet applicable South African requirements could leave your business exposed.
❌ UNPROVEN PERFORMANCE – Marketing promises are no substitute for independent testing.

FIREBLOCK – CERTIFIED. TESTED. PROVEN.
✅ SANS 1910 CERTIFIED – BSI Kitemark certification for our 9-litre Fireblock Lithium extinguisher.
✅ NTA 8133 LITHIUM-ION FIRE TESTING – Our extinguisher has undergone specialised lithium-ion battery fire testing against NTA 8133 procedures.
✅ RISE TESTED IN SWEDEN – Independent laboratory testing demonstrating the effectiveness of Fireblock Lithium Gel in controlling thermal runaway propagation.
✅ DOCUMENTED SCIENTIFIC RESULTS – Real laboratory test data supporting our product's performance.
✅ SERVICEABLE AND REFILLABLE – Professional servicing and refill support.
When a lithium-ion battery catches fire, there is no time for excuses, empty promises or unproven products.

DEMAND THE CERTIFICATE.
ASK FOR THE TEST RESULTS.

CHOOSE FIREBLOCK.

🔥 LITHIUM FIRE PROTECTION — DON'T JUST BELIEVE THE CLAIMS. DEMAND THE TEST RESULTS!

The lithium-ion fire protection market is growing, but one critical question must be asked of every product:

Can it help prevent thermal runaway from spreading to neighbouring battery cells?

Fireblock took its technology to RISE Research Institutes of Sweden for independent laboratory testing.
✅ Three different thermal runaway initiation methods.
✅ No thermal propagation to neighbouring cells observed in all three tests.
✅ No re-ignition observed during the monitored periods.
✅ Recorded temperatures decreased following Fireblock Lithium Gel application.

These are documented laboratory observations, not just marketing promises.

Fireblock is prepared to put its technology under scientific scrutiny. Is your lithium fire protection supplier doing the same?
