Charge batteries in a box that buys you time
According to the IFS, three out of four battery fires start during the charging phase. The Vlitex Battery Safety Box brings charging into a four-layer shell that suppresses flames, reduces smoke and toxic gases and keeps the outside temperature under control.
- Charging in the box: charging cable out under the lid, buckle shut, done.
- Real-fire tested: together with a fire department, with 3 × 45.8 Wh (L) and 740 Wh (XL).
- Four layers: glass fiber, 4 mm insulating interlayer, mat, glass fiber, up to 1,000 °C short-term (KIWA).
- Adjustable dividers: every battery gets its own compartment.

Four links, one system
Every link has someone in charge. Fire safety officers plan prevention, the plant fire department responds, and both organize securing and recovery together.

After an accident or battery damage, a significantly delayed ignition is possible. Without additional measures, a damaged EV needs at least 5 m of clearance all around; fully wrapped, it drops to more than 1.5 m according to the example sketches.

Replace what was deployed
Fire safety officersPlant fire department
Fire residues on the blanket are toxic. Whether a product can still be used after deployment depends on the model and the fire load. So plan for the replacement right from the start.
What applies after deployment
- PREMIUM, STANDARD and ULTIMATE: reusable, depending on the fire load
- SUPERIOR and SUPERIOR PRO: for single use
- Bags and safety box: dispose of after a fire incident

Blanket + SnakE® Solid
The ideal combination for EV fires
The fire containment blanket keeps the fire contained, reduces smoke and protects the surroundings. It does not cool the battery: a thermal runaway in progress continues to develop under the blanket. SnakE® Solid brings the water exactly there, under the vehicle, with no hoses that can melt.

FAQs
Asked by fire safety officers and plant fire crews
Why a fire containment blanket and SnakE® Solid together?
The blanket contains the fire, holds in flames and smoke and protects the surroundings. It does not cool the battery: a thermal runaway in progress continues under the blanket. SnakE® Solid is slid under the vehicle and cools the battery from below, with rigid V4A pipes instead of hoses. Since January 2021, the AGBF has recommended cooling high-voltage batteries and monitoring them with a thermal imaging camera. If you order both together via one quote, you get a 5% set discount.
Can I charge batteries in the safety box?
Yes. You run the charging cable out under the lid and close the buckle. If a battery goes into thermal runaway while charging, the box suppresses the flames, reduces smoke and gases and keeps the outside temperature under control. The L is intended for tool, drone and RC model batteries, the XL for e-bike batteries.
Does a fire containment blanket extinguish a battery fire?
No, the blanket is not an extinguishing agent, it contains the fire: the flames stay isolated under the blanket, smoke and toxic gases spread less, the temperature drops and explosions are limited. If an EV needs to be cooled under the blanket, the fire department slides the SnakE® Solid extinguishing system underneath.
Which Vlitex blanket suits which object?
The small sizes of PREMIUM and STANDARD cover cordless tools, e-bikes and e-scooters. The large sizes of PREMIUM and SUPERIOR are intended for cars and forklifts. SUPERIOR PRO is designed for enclosed battery modules over 1 kWh, ULTIMATE for open modules over 5 kWh. Tell us the object and its dimensions, and we will tell you the right size.
What does DIN SPEC 91489 specify?
DIN SPEC 91489 sets out the requirements for fire containment blankets for electric vehicles. According to Vlitex, these include heat resistance of 1,000 °C for 23 minutes without holes forming or seams failing, cut resistance from 2 N according to DIN EN ISO 13997 (15 N and above counts as increased protection), protection against electrostatic charging and chemical resistance to fuels, oils and extinguishing agents. In the STFI cut test, the PREMIUM fabric achieves 18.45 N.
Can I reuse a blanket after deployment?
That depends on the model and the fire load. PREMIUM, STANDARD and ULTIMATE are reusable, depending on the fire load; after a fire deployment, however, the PREMIUM blanket is no longer compliant with DIN SPEC 91489. SUPERIOR and SUPERIOR PRO are designed for single use. Bags and the safety box are disposed of after a fire incident. Fire residues on the blanket are toxic.
Who can deploy the blanket?
Vlitex describes deployment as quick and easy, by trained personnel in an emergency. Four handles at all corners help with placing it, and the large sizes from 5 × 6 m have markings for centered placement.
Can batteries be charged in the Akku-Safe Rack?
Yes. The rack is designed for storing and charging battery-powered devices and e-bike batteries. Vlitex recommends at least 10 cm of clearance from walls and other objects. The protective cover can be replaced separately.
How should I store the blanket?
Horizontally, in suitable storage, for example in the Red Bag backpack, a trolley or a metal cabinet, in a dry place. Do not place any load directly on the blanket.
Can I get test reports for my records?
Yes. We send you the test certificates from KIWA, MPA, Fraunhofer, Magna Steyr, Eurofins, STFI and Hochschule Hof on request, as well as the data sheets. Just tick the test reports box in the form.
Can I purchase on account?
Yes. Purchase on account is available for businesses, public authorities and municipalities, also via XRechnung. Via “Request a quote” you get a written quote with line items and delivery time.
