AVD is NTA 8133 Approved!
As lithium-ion batteries become increasingly prevalent across numerous industries, the need for specialised fire safety measures corresponding to their unique fire hazards has never been more critical. While a BS EN3 certificate specifically for portable fire extinguishers addressing lithium-ion battery fires is yet to be established, we stand at the forefront of innovation in this field.
Developed in collaboration with KIWA and the Royal Netherlands standardisation Institute, the NTA 8133 technical guideline is currently the only standard in place to test the performance of portable fire extinguishers on Lithium-ion battery fires.
We can confirm that AVD available in both 6ltr and 9ltr capacities, proudly carry the NTA 8133 approval.
