LifeSafe enters into strategic partnership with Wormald Fire & Safety for Thermal Runaway Fluid
LifeSafe (AIM:LIFS), a fire safety technology business with innovative fire extinguishing fluids and fire safety products, announces that it has entered into an exclusive strategic partnership with Wormald Fire & Safety ("Wormald") to distribute its new lithium-ion fire extinguishing fluid Thermal Runaway Fluid ("TRF"), which is fluorine free.
The agreement with Wormald is LifeSafe's first industrial partnership and represents a major growth opportunity for the Group. Under the agreement, Wormald will be distributing LifeSafe's TRF exclusively throughout Australia and New Zealand.
LifeSafe's TRF is designed to permanently extinguish and prevent the re-ignition of lithium fires and has been engineered to remove the heat from the lithium fire, therefore making the battery safer post trauma. Lithium-ion batteries are used across a wide variety of everyday products.
Dominic Berger, Chairman of LifeSafe commented: "Our strategic partnership with Wormald is testament to the hard work and dedication of our team who have been working and testing with them for 18 months. We are excited about how the partnership and endorsement of Wormald will now open a huge opportunity in the bulk supply of our fluids through similar partnerships globally."
Jon Buckley, Director Defence, Marine & Products, Wormald commented: "We are delighted to be working with LifeSafe Technologies as a strategic partner."
Wormald is a leading provider of fire protection services in Australia, who manufacture, install and service fire safety products, fire extinguishers and equipment, providing a comprehensive range of fire services from engineering advice to fire safety training.
