Product information „PRIOPACK small storage box“
Suitable filling material for the battery storage container
The appropriate filling material is required to use the PRIOPACK battery storage container. If you do not have any filling material, please order the version "Incl. 2 x Priopack filling material, 8 pieces each". You can find additional filling material in the Accessories tab.
In buildings and storage facilities where lithium-ion batteries are stored, damaged cells can pose a high risk to employees and to operating and storage equipment. Explosive fires caused by batteries ("thermal runaway") are difficult to control.
Please note that this system is not a dangerous goods packaging for the transport of defective cells within the meaning of SV 376 of the ADR. This container is intended for storage.
Size, structure and function of the storage container
The PRIOPACK storage container is available in two versions. This smaller version has external dimensions of 400 x 300 x 233 mm and internal dimensions of 307 x 208 x 164 mm (length x width x height). It weighs 8 kg. The container is grey in colour.
90 minutes fire resistance
The storage container is made of plastic and lined with fire-resistant building boards on the inside, enabling it to remain stable for 90 minutes in the event of a fire.
Sturdy lid
The lid can be securely closed with a hinged lid and snap lock. It will not open even in the event of a fire.
With vermiculite cushions: an additional safety feature
Vermiculite filler packs must be ordered separately for this container. We recommend 2 to 3 packs per box. Vermiculite is non-flammable and further insulates the heat energy.
The manufacturer
PRIORIT AG, based in Hanau, has been synonymous with innovative structural fire protection solutions for 20 years. Its product range extends from products for the structural protection of escape and rescue routes to solutions for tunnel construction and the protection of IT systems and storage of hazardous materials.
PRIORIT manufactures fire-resistant components with decorative surfaces based on non-combustible building materials, thus offering the possibility of harmonising safety and design aspects.
Future-oriented
Lithium-ion batteries will become indispensable in all industrial applications in the coming years
.
However, if used improperly, these batteries can pose a potential hazard that should not be underestimated during manufacture, storage and transport. By purchasing this storage container, you are protecting yourself against major financial losses right from the start.

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.
