Safe transportation, sustainable future!

Safety innovations in e-mobility battery transportation

As a leading provider of innovative packaging solutions for the logistics industry, wi-sales GmbH is at the forefront when it comes to developing safe and efficient transport solutions for e-mobility batteries. At a time when electromobility is rapidly gaining in importance, new challenges are arising in the safe transportation of lithium-ion batteries. Our company has set itself the task of mastering these challenges with innovative and sustainable solutions.

The challenges of transporting e-mobility batteries

The transportation of lithium-ion batteries used in electric vehicles presents unique risks and challenges. These energy storage devices are not only heavy and bulky, but also potentially dangerous if not handled correctly. The main risks include:

• Thermal passages and fires
• Mechanical damage due to shocks or vibrations
• Short circuits due to improper handling
• Environmental pollution due to temperature and humidity

To meet these challenges, wi-sales GmbH has developed a range of innovative solutions that are specifically tailored to the needs of the e-mobility sector.

ThorPak®: The revolution in battery transportation

Our flagship product for the safe transportation of e-mobility batteries is the ThorPak® series. These specially developed large load carriers combine the highest safety standards with practical functionality and sustainable design.

ThorPak® large battery carriers are characterized by the following features:

• Fire protection: Integrated fire-retardant materials to minimize the risk of fire
• Shock absorption: special padding to protect against mechanical impact
• Temperature management: insulating properties to stabilize the battery temperature
• Customizability: Flexible sizes and configurations for different battery types
• Sustainability: 100% recyclable materials and reduced transportation volume

“Our ThorPak® solutions set new standards in the safe and efficient transportation of e-mobility batteries. We combine innovative technologies with practical functionality to meet the challenges of electromobility.”

Safety through intelligent design

When developing our battery transport solutions, we place particular emphasis on an intelligent design that combines safety with efficiency. A key element of this is the use of our Aircell® plates, which act as lightweight but extremely robust air chamber plates.

These innovative panels offer:

• Up to 70% weight saving compared to solid panels
• Excellent shock absorption properties
• Flexibility in adapting to specific customer requirements

By integrating Aircell® plates into our ThorPak® battery transport containers, we achieve an optimal balance between protection and weight reduction, which increases both the safety and efficiency of transportation.

Compliance and regulatory requirements

The transportation of lithium-ion batteries is subject to strict international regulations. Our solutions are designed to meet all relevant safety standards and transportation regulations, including:

• UN 3480 for lithium-ion batteries
• ADR regulations for road transport
• IATA guidelines for air transportation
• IMO regulations for maritime transportation

By adhering to these standards, we not only ensure safety, but also smooth logistical processing for our customers.

Focus on sustainability

As a company committed to sustainability, we attach great importance to environmentally friendly solutions. Our ThorPak® battery large load carriers are a prime example of this approach:

• 100% recyclable materials
• Up to 80% volume reduction for empties return
• Durable construction for multiple reuse

These features not only help to reduce the environmental footprint, but also lower the total cost of ownership for our customers.

Adaptability and customer orientation

Every customer has unique requirements, especially in the fast-growing field of e-mobility. Our ThorPak® battery transport containers demonstrate our ability to offer customized solutions:

• Customizable dimensions for different battery types and sizes
• Additional functions that can be integrated, such as RFID tracking or temperature monitoring
• Optimization for different transport modes (road, rail, sea, air)

This flexibility enables us to master even complex logistical challenges efficiently and offer our customers real added value.

Practical implementation and handling

Safety in the transportation of e-mobility batteries starts with correct packaging and handling. Our solutions are designed to make these processes as simple and safe as possible.

We offer comprehensive packing instructions that explain in detail how to make the best use of our containers. These instructions include:

• Step-by-step instructions for correctly charging and securing the batteries
• Instructions for handling and transporting the loaded containers
• Safety guidelines and emergency procedures

By providing this detailed information, we ensure that our customers can exploit the full potential of our security innovations.

Future prospects and continuous innovation

The e-mobility sector is developing rapidly, and with it the requirements for safe transportation solutions. At wi-sales GmbH, we are not standing still, but are continuously working on the further development of our products. Some of the areas in which we are actively researching and developing are:

• Integration of IoT technologies for real-time monitoring of battery conditions
• Development of even lighter but equally robust materials
• Improvement of fire protection properties through innovative material composites
• Optimizing the recyclability and life cycle management of our products

Our aim is to remain at the forefront of technological development and to offer our customers solutions that not only meet the current challenges of e-mobility battery transportation, but also those of the future.
