EV Charging Station Fire Containment Solutions
The Fire Risk Behind Charging Infrastructure
As electric vehicle adoption surges, EV charging stations and charging piles have become high-risk zones for EV fires. These locations concentrate high-voltage energy, battery presence, and often operate unattended. A single battery thermal runaway can lead to fast-spreading battery fires, structural damage, and evacuation-level emergencies.
Fast charging (DCFC) in particular accelerates power transfer, which may trigger instability in damaged or aging lithium-ion battery packs. According to NFPA and NTSB data, such events often release toxic gases, pose air quality hazards, and are difficult to suppress without specialized containment tools.
Why Charging Fires Demand Specialized Containment
Fires often start silently during unattended charging cycles
Multiple adjacent EVs may ignite, escalating the incident within minutes
Concrete or composite station floors may suffer heat damage from downward flame and radiant heat
Thermal runaway may reoccur, requiring extended monitoring post-extinguishment
On-site staff rarely have tools or training to contain high-temperature battery combustion
How Safeprotex Secures Your Charging Site
Safeprotex offers a modular response system tailored for public, commercial, and fleet charging environments. Our kits combine passive suppression, heat shielding, and essential document protection in one deployable package.
Each solution includes:
EV Fire Containment Blanket – For fast isolation of flames and oxygen control
Battery Isolation Mat – To shield pavement or structure floors from vertical thermal transfer
Fireproof Document Bag – Protects site files, inspection logs, and EV diagnostics
Fire Response Station Box – Wall-mounted or mobile cabinet housing all components, designed for use near charging bays
Thermal Shield Pouch (Optional) – For protecting stored battery cells or internal backup power units
All materials are manufactured to UL 94, DIN 4102, and fully comply with DIN SPEC 91489—the international specification for EV battery fire containment. Site placement recommendations follow NFPA 70, NEC Article 625, and NFPA 70E guidelines for EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) protection zones.
