Lithium safety for Real Estate & Buildings
Lithium battery systems are increasingly integrated into modern buildings, from energy storage systems to e-mobility infrastructure. The risk of thermal runaway grows in densely populated environments where safety, asset protection, and business continuity are critical.
Failure is not an option in buildings
Within buildings, lithium battery incidents can escalate rapidly due to enclosed spaces, high occupancy, and complex infrastructure. Traditional fire response systems are often too slow to prevent damage. In these environments, incidents must be detected and controlled before ignition occurs to protect occupants, assets, and operations.
What makes lithium risk critical in buildings?
- Enclosed spaces increase heat buildup and fire spread
- High occupant density complicates evacuation
- Valuable assets and infrastructure at risk
- Traditional fire systems react only after ignition
- Downtime leads to business disruption and financial loss
Engineered containment for building safety
Schneider containment systems are designed specifically for buildings and real estate environments, where early detection, controlled intervention, and full containment are essential. By integrating detection, suppression, and isolation into one system, incidents are stopped at the source, before they can impact occupants, infrastructure, or operations.

Solutions for maritime environments
The following systems are commonly used in maritime applications:
Proven in the most demanding environments
Maritime environments are among the most demanding safety conditions in the world. Schneider containment systems are engineered to perform where reliability is essential.
If it works offshore, it works anywhere.
