LifeSafe’s products selected by global insurer
LifeSafe Technologies’ StaySafe All-in-1 and Thermal Runaway Fluid have been identified and selected as offering something unique as fire prevention products by QBE Insurance Group Limited
LifeSafe, a fire safety technology business with innovative fire extinguishing fluids and fire safety products, is pleased to announce that it has been appointed by QBE Insurance Group Limited, a global leader in insurance and reinsurance services, to QBE’s solutions panel of risk management providers to help its clients respond to the increasing risk of fires.
LifeSafe’s suite of fire prevention products have been added to QBE’s ‘Solutions Panel’, a select list of products provided by best-in-class suppliers to help QBE’s clients plan, defend and respond to their everyday business needs. The appointment follows 14-months of testing and demonstrating the performance of LifeSafe’s industry-leading products.
QBE’s global client base will have streamlined access to LifeSafe’s eco-friendly and fully recyclable handheld StaySafe All-in-1 extinguisher and the new Thermal Runaway Fluid, which combats lithium battery fires by permanently extinguishing and preventing re-ignition. LifeSafe’s products will ensure QBE’s global client base will concurrently enhance safety and reduce risks and costs.
Lithium-ion batteries have been around for years, however, their use in recent times has expanded considerably, most notably in laptops, electric cars, e-scooters and e-bikes. In addition, their use in cordless tools and gardening equipment has grown too. Their use is going to continue to grow too, most likely in the home as power storage systems.
Adrian Simmonds, QBE European Operations, said:
“We are delighted to have appointed LifeSafe Technologies to the QBE Solutions Panel which is in recognition of their innovative, eco-friendly fire extinguishing fluids and products which are designed to reduce the financial and environmental impacts of fire.”
Neil Smith, CEO of LifeSafe, commented:
“We are honoured to be selected by QBE as a preferred fire safety products provider to all global clients. The appointment is testament to our ongoing commitment to excellence in fire prevention and reducing the risk of the devastating consequences of fires. Both our StaySafe All-in-1 and Thermal Runaway Fluid are critical products when dealing with any type of fire, especially lithium-ion battery fires, which are increasing in number day-by-day worldwide.”
