LifeSafe showcases game changing Thermal Runaway Fluid at The Emergency Services Show

LifeSafe (AIM:LIFS), a fire safety technology business with innovative fire extinguishing fluids and fire safety products, is proud to be attending and supporting The Emergency Services Show ("TESS") at the NEC in Birmingham today.

TESS highlights innovations from across the emergency services sector, bringing together professionals, experts, and thought leaders with over 16,000 blue light professionals from police, fire and rescue, ambulance, search and rescue, and voluntary sectors.

LifeSafe, invited to attend by the Institute of Fire Safety Engineers, will be showcasing their new Thermal Runaway Fluid ("TRF"). Thermal runaway is one of the primary risks related to lithium-ion batteries and is a phenomenon where the battery cell enters an uncontrollable, self-heating state.

LifeSafe's TRF is designed to permanently extinguish and prevent the re-ignition of lithium fires and has been engineered to remove the heat from the lithium fire, therefore making the battery safer post trauma. Lithium-ion batteries are used across a wide variety of everyday products. 

Paul Trew, Technical Advisor to the Institute of Fire Engineers commented, "The growing use of lithium-ion powered devices and the increasing number of challenging fire incidents requires new solutions and thinking. We are delighted to be joined at this year's event by LifeSafe who are showcasing their highly innovative new Thermal Runaway Fluid."

Notes to Editors

LifeSafe is a fire safety technology business that develops eco-friendly, novel and innovative fire extinguishing fluids and life-saving fire safety products.  Through its highly experienced management team, LifeSafe is successfully creating new markets for the Group in fire safety through its unique technologies, products, digital marketing and multi-channel sales.

LifeSafe has developed what the Directors believe to be a market disrupting range of eco-friendly fire safety protection products including, launched in December 2022, a new Thermal Runaway Fluid to combat thermal runaway in lithium battery fires by permanently extinguishing and preventing the re-ignition of lithium fires.  This is an evolution of the Group's core FER1000 extinguishing fluid, for which the Group has been granted a patent in the UK, which has been developed by LifeSafe to extinguish five different types of fire: electrical, paper, textiles, cooking oil, and petrol and diesel.

The Group launched its best-selling first generation StaySafe 5-in-1 fire extinguisher using this fluid on Amazon Prime in the UK in August 2021.  It subsequently became Amazon Prime's top-selling fire extinguisher in the UK in the same month.  The StaySafe All-in-1, an evolution of the Group's core fluid which is verified to extinguish ten different fire types, was launched in the UK in April 2023 and in the US in July 2023.  StaySafe products were launched in Screwfix in Spring 2022.

LifeSafe is continuing to develop new fluid derivations for applications in various industrial market sectors.

LifeSafe was admitted to trading on AIM in July 2022 with the ticker LIFS.L.  For additional information please visit https://www.lifesafeholdingsplc.com.
