What was the need?
Firechief customer Stewart Ramsey Ltd needed a product that could provide protection for their client, MVV Environment in Dundee. Operating in the Energy Recycling sector, MVV’s concern about Lithium-ion battery fires was high as they deal with Lithium-ion batteries daily.
MVV wanted extra fire protection due to the size of the specific area that needed cover and the associated fire risk.
The solution
Following a fire risk assessment, a Firechief 50 litre Lithium-ion Battery Fire Trolley Extinguisher was installed, along with several Li-ion portable extinguishers and signs.
The benefits
MVV was impressed with the environmental qualities of AVD as well as being convinced with its effectiveness on thermal runaway within Lithium-ion batteries. Read more on what causes Lithium-ion battery fires.
