Consumers have an insatiable appetite for mobile devices and electronic products. And it’s giving the air cargo industry a real headache. Aircraft face serious fire risks by carrying large numbers of lithium-based batteries, many of which are undeclared. These batteries can occasionally self-ignite, but the fire suppression systems on planes can’t yet tackle lithium fires. Keen to help find a solution, we’ve invested heavily in research to design a fireproof air container. The result is a fire-resistant container that can contain a fire for at least six hours, giving the pilot enough time to land and evacuate the plane safely.
