From December 7th to December 8th, 2022, the ninth edition of the VdS-BrandSchutzTage will take place in Cologne, Germany. The fire protection solution provider - WAGNER will present its portfolio of products and systems for plant fire protection at its booth C-06, focusing in particular on fire protection for lithium-ion batteries.

Lithium-ion batteries are versatile and an indispensable part of everyday life. However, they also place special demands on fire protection. As an example, in addition to the number of batteries stored, the battery charge level in particular, as well as necessary safety distances between the batteries, are important aspects that must be taken into account during storage.
