Product information „Priorit PRIOPACK-T transport and storage box“

Overview

The Priorit PRIOPACK-T Transport and Storage Box is specifically designed for the safe transport and temporary storage of defective or damaged lithium-ion batteries. It is particularly suitable for batteries presenting an increased fire risk and enables companies to handle and transport hazardous batteries in compliance with applicable dangerous goods regulations.

Manufactured from durable polypropylene (PP), the container features a fire-resistant internal lining made from a non-combustible thermal insulation material. When used together with the specified vermiculite filling material, batteries are fully enclosed, mechanically protected and thermally separated from one another. The filling material also absorbs leaking electrolyte and helps mitigate the risk and consequences of a thermal runaway event.

The container is fitted with a secure lid featuring locking latches with toggle fasteners to ensure reliable closure during transport. Two integrated textile carrying handles allow safe manual handling, while the stackable design optimises storage capacity and simplifies the transport of multiple containers.

Typical Applications

The PRIOPACK-T Transport and Storage Box is suitable for:

  • Transport of defective lithium-ion batteries
  • Temporary storage of damaged batteries
  • Workshops and service centres
  • Industrial and manufacturing facilities
  • Battery distributors and take-back schemes
  • Recycling and waste management companies
  • Logistics and dangerous goods transport

Compliance

The PRIOPACK-T Transport and Storage Box complies with the requirements for the transport of lithium batteries as dangerous goods in accordance with:

  • UN packaging code 4H2
  • Packing Groups I, II and III
  • Packing Instructions P903, P908, P909 and P910
  • ADR Special Provisions SV 310, SV 376 and SV 377

Important Information

For safe operation, the PRIOPACK-T Transport and Storage Box must be used with the appropriate vermiculite-based filling and insulation material. This material completely surrounds the batteries, minimises movement during transport and absorbs any leaking electrolyte. The quantity required depends on both the container size and the dimensions of the batteries being transported.

The container is intended for defective or damaged lithium-ion batteries. It is not suitable for critically defective batteries. Use must always comply with the applicable dangerous goods regulations and the relevant packing instructions.

A Future-Proof Solution

As the number of lithium-ion batteries in industrial and commercial applications continues to grow, so do the requirements for their safe storage and compliant transport. The PRIOPACK-T Transport and Storage Box provides a reliable solution for the temporary storage and transport of damaged batteries to recycling or disposal facilities in accordance with current dangerous goods regulations.

Its fire-resistant construction, UN-certified packaging design and availability in different sizes make it easy to integrate into existing safety, logistics and battery handling processes.

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.
