Certification and guidelines
Lithium batteries fall under dangerous goods class 9, which means that the goods pose a significant risk to the environment during transport. Numerous specifications and guidelines must therefore be observed when transporting lithium batteries.
Certified for packaging group II
The containers in the FLEX-BOX series meet the requirements of packaging group II, which means that substances with a medium hazard potential may be transported in them. To achieve this classification, drop tests from a height of 1.2 metres must be passed.
Different properties and filling materials
Height of the folded box
The "Basic" version has a folded height of 276 mm, which allows for compact and space-saving storage. The "Advanced" and Premium versions have a folded height of 420 mm.
E-glass fibre needle mats and PyroBubbles provide additional protection
The Advanced version protects the contents from shocks and vibrations with E-glass fibre needle mats. This filling material is non-flammable and non-conductive. The Premium version is available for the highest safety requirements.
Filling material and safety features
No additional filling material is required for the Basic version. This option is ideal for transporting undamaged and non-defective batteries that do not require special filling materials in accordance with packaging regulation P 903. For increased safety, we recommend the "Advanced" version, which is equipped with E-glass fibre needle mats. The Advanced version can also be used to store or transport damaged and defective batteries and prototypes. For maximum safety and protection, we recommend the "Premium" version. This uses E-glass fibre needle mats in combination with 12 PyroBubbles cushions (included). The box is filled with the fire protection agent PyroBubbles ®, which forms a closed and thermally insulating layer around a source of fire. PyroBubbles offer additional fire protection and contribute to safety, especially when storing or transporting lithium batteries or lithium-ion batteries.
Future-oriented
Lithium-ion batteries will become indispensable in all industrial applications in the coming years
.
However, if used improperly, the batteries can pose a potential hazard that should not be underestimated during manufacture, storage and transport. By purchasing these boxes, you are protecting yourself against major financial losses right from the start. International customers from the automotive and energy supply sectors, among others, rely on this proven technology.

FAQ
That depends on various factors that need to be considered:
- size of the battery(ies)
- condition (e.g. non-critical, defective, critically defective or prototype)
- power
Transport boxes are available in many different sizes and specifications. The packaging group for which the box is suitable is indicated for each product.

Even if the batteries are not critical, remember to protect them from shocks and to order appropriate filling material if it is not already included in the box.
Yes. Should a battery reach a critical state and cause a fire, separating the batteries will prevent the fire from spreading and multiplying.
Generally, the insulation and protection material should line all sides of the container. The batteries are stored between individual layers.
We also have containers in our program that already have the protective material integrated into the outer wall. No further protective layer is necessary here.
The technical principles for storage and transportation solutions are very similar. The transport boxes are also subjected to extensive tests in accordance with ADR (drop test, fire test, etc.) to confirm compliance with the ADR regulations. The packaging regulations are extensive and regulated by law.
There are currently no comparable regulations for storage. Nevertheless, manufacturers of storage boxes regularly carry out appropriate tests.
The right container depends on the type and size of the battery to be shipped or stored.

The transportation of batteries is subject to ADR regulations.
The number, size and weight, energy density and condition of the batteries are crucial parameters for finding a suitable transport container for lithium-ion batteries. The selection process is complex and should be carried out by appropriately trained personnel. We have a trained hazardous materials officer on our team. Please feel free to contact us.
Plastic containers are cheaper but not as durable as metal containers. They are suitable, for example, for non-critical batteries, defective batteries, prototypes and end-of-life batteries. They can be used for both storage and transportation.
Metal containers are required, for example, when dealing with critically defective batteries.
The exact packaging instructions for these cases can be found in the ADR or by consulting a certified hazardous materials specialist.
To date, there are no legal requirements for the storage of lithium-ion batteries, which does not mean that they should be stored without suitable protective measures.
It is best to check with your insurer to find out which measures they recognize as suitable in the event of a claim.
For example, a suitable box could already be recognized as spatial separation.
