PGS 37-2

Safety first when storing non-lithium-ion batteries

We not only supply high-quality batteries for appliances, vehicles and machines, but also provide safe storage according to the PGS 37-2 guideline. This guideline is specifically designed for energy carriers such as lead-acid, nickel-cadmium and nickel-metal hydride batteries. With the increasing variation in battery technologies, it is crucial to tailor safety standards to the unique characteristics of each type of battery. We have the knowledge and experience to support you in implementing the PGS 37-2 safety regulations.

Safety standards for non-lithium-ion batteries

The PGS 37-2 directive sets clear requirements for the safe storage of batteries that do not contain lithium-ion technology. These include fire safety, ventilation and safe handling of leaks. Thanks to our years of experience with various battery types, we know exactly how to minimize these risks. We ensure that our storage facilities meet the strictest safety standards to reduce fire, chemical reactions and risks to health and the environment.

Design and construction of secure storage facilities

Safe storage begins with well-thought-out facilities. PGS 37-2 requires that storage areas be carefully designed and constructed to safely store various battery types. Consider fire-resistant structures, logical layout of storage areas and the use of materials that can withstand potential incidents.

Emergency preparedness

When storing batteries, a proper emergency plan is essential. PGS 37-2 requires specific emergency procedures, such as evacuation plans and fire-fighting measures, tailored to the risks of non-lithium-ion batteries. With our years of experience, we ensure that we are well prepared for any emergencies so that we can act quickly and effectively when needed.

Training and information

Proper preparation is the key to safety. We make sure our staff is fully trained in the PGS 37-2 guidelines and procedures, so they know exactly how to deal with the specific safety hazards of different battery types.
