When a lithium-ion battery is damaged, a short circuit can occur, and that spark is enough to ignite the highly reactive lithium inside and cause a fire. When overheated, lithium-ion batteries can also explode. For these reasons, from December 31, 2018, lithium batteries with UN codes 3090, 3091, 3480, and 3481 must be identified with the labels provided for the packaging, and a Class 9A ADR sign must be displayed on trucks.
Reliable and compliant truck signs:
Brady offers the Class 9A ADR truck sign for identifying lithium batteries, made with reliable materials that last for years outdoors. The diamond-shaped lithium battery warning sign is available with a self-adhesive, magnetic, or rigid backing to fit a wide variety of trucks. The sign not only improves regulatory compliance but also alerts drivers and first responders to fire hazards. Brady also offers 15 other ADR signs for optimal truck compliance.
Easy-to-Apply Packaging Labels:
Brady's lithium battery packaging labels are easy to apply and ensure regulatory compliance. As indicated, you must add the correct battery UN number, your phone number, and any other required information to the label. This can be done at Brady's manufacturing facilities according to your specifications, or companies can print their own labels in-house using a Brady printer.
Reliable and easy-to-apply lithium battery signs and labels are available on the Brady website.
Brady Corporation offers new truck signs made of reliable materials to identify lithium batteries in compliance with ADR regulations, as well as easy-to-apply packaging labels to warn employees and first responders that the packs contain highly flammable, difficult-to-extinguish lithium batteries.
