Masks and Safety: Why Lithium Batteries Need a Safe "Disguise"

Carnival 2025 is fast approaching, and while we prepare to wear spectacular masks, it is crucial to remember that lithium batteries also need a proper "disguise" to ensure their safety during transport and storage.

International regulations, such as UN 38.3 and the latest ICAO provisions for air transport, set stringent standards to prevent accidents due to non-compliant packaging. To avoid risks of short circuits or spontaneous combustion, it is now mandatory to use fire-resistant materials and shock protection systems. Furthermore, the new IATA guidelines for 2025 place strong emphasis on the proper declaration of hazardous materials during air transport.

Here are the technical aspects to consider for optimal protection:

Certified UN Packaging: Use of shock-proof separators and fire-resistant materials to ensure maximum safety.

Thermal Insulation: Prevention of overheating during transport.

Advanced Detection Systems: Monitoring anomalies in shipments for real-time control.

RFID Technology: For real-time tracking and environmental condition management.

Investing in lithium battery safety not only reduces accidents but also ensures a more efficient logistics system, protecting both operators and end consumers. Just as we carefully choose our costumes, let's make sure that batteries are well-protected and comply with all safety regulations!
