Achieving reuse by withstanding peak temperatures exceeding 1000℃! Test case of a fireproof blanket.
We would like to introduce a case study utilizing AVD Fire manufactured blankets. Traditionally, addressing peak temperatures and the reusability after use have been challenges in lithium-ion battery fires. In this case study, heat resistance tests were conducted, confirming that the blankets can withstand temperatures exceeding 1000°C while maintaining a state suitable for reuse, with strength and flexibility preserved. [Challenges] ■ Addressing peak temperatures generated by lithium-ion battery fires ■ Maintaining heat resistance while also preserving strength and flexibility for reuse *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Company information
For about 40 years at a fire equipment company, I worked on residential fire prevention outside of regulatory frameworks for the last 13 years. I developed Japan's first "initial extinguishing device using tap water," the "Street Fire Hydrant," and later the backpack-type "Street Fire Harrier," obtaining public evaluations and patents to promote their use. By the end of July 2024, we have achieved a total of 1,140 units installed, primarily in traditional building preservation districts and around cultural properties, focusing on municipalities, voluntary disaster prevention organizations, and neighborhood associations. Unlike regulatory fire equipment, these products are persuasive in nature, so the delivery takes time, but there have been successful cases in actual fires, which have been well received. Six years ago, after retiring at the mandatory retirement age for executives, I established a company in hopes of expanding business with a certain equipment manufacturer, but due to the nature of the products, it did not go well, and I liquidated the company last year, continuing my previous business as a sole proprietor. The production system for the products, installation, renovation work, and inspection services are still being outsourced as before. Additionally, for the past three years, I have been collaborating with a certain fire equipment manufacturer, metal-related associations, and research institutions to work towards domestic production (sales) of a new extinguishing agent (AVD extinguishing agent: made in the UK). The intended use for this agent is for lithium-ion battery fires and metal fires. This issue is still an area where regulatory solutions are insufficient.
