When packing lithium batteries in drums, safety is paramount. Batteries must be intact, free from any damage, leakage, or signs of burning. To prevent short-circuiting, ensure that each battery terminal is properly taped. The batteries should be placed in a sturdy drum, with vermiculite used to fill all spaces between the batteries.
This material acts as a cushioning agent, preventing movement during transit and mitigating potential fire risks. When ordering battery drums, we also provide a comprehensive battery packing guidelines PDF, detailing specific instructions for safe handling and compliance with regulatory requirements.
