Product information „Genius Lio Guard Storage Box 220 Storage Box“
Overview
The Genius Lio Guard Storage Box 220 is a specially designed safety box for the secure storage of lithium batteries and lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. The robust steel construction, combined with an integrated fire protection system, offers a reliable solution for businesses wishing to store batteries safely and minimise potential risks.
The system is suitable for storing both intact and damaged lithium batteries. The use of a thermally active fire protection filling material significantly reduces the risk of fire spreading in the event of a battery incident. The storage boxes are reusable, stackable and designed for daily industrial use.

Scope of use & application
The Genius Lio Guard Storage Box 220 has been developed for the safe storage of lithium batteries and lithium-ion batteries. It is particularly suitable for companies in the industrial, logistics, recycling, energy supply, research and automotive sectors.
Typical areas of application include :
- Storage of new or used lithium batteries
- Separation of damaged or suspicious batteries
- Temporary storage prior to transport or disposal
- Secure storage in the production and service areas
- Risk minimisation for batteries with an increased hazard potential
Thanks to the integrated fire protection technology, the boxes can also be used for batteries where an increased risk of thermal runaway cannot be ruled out.
Approvals & Safety Features
- Safety containers for lithium batteries and lithium-ion rechargeable batteries
- Suitable for batteries covered by regulations UN3090, UN3091, UN3480 and UN3481
- Integrated insert for secure positioning of the batteries
- Fire protection filling made from PyroBubbles ® for thermal shielding
- Additional fire protection cushions in the lid area
- Reduction of heat transfer to the surroundings in the event of an incident
- Assistance in containing fire and thermalrunaway events
- Robust steel construction for high mechanical loads
- Reusable safety concept
Instructions for use & operation
The storage box is designed for the safe storage of lithium batteries and should only be used in accordance with its intended purpose. Before storing damaged or high-risk batteries, it is recommended that an individual risk assessment be carried out.
The fire-retardant filling and the integrated fire-retardant cushions form part of the safety concept and should be checked regularly to ensure they are complete and undamaged. Damaged components must be replaced immediately.
When storing large quantities of batteries or batteries posing an increased risk, additional consideration should be given to the organisation’s fire safety and security requirements.

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.
