Description
EV Car Service Set - for Safe Transport and Storage
Damaged electric vehicles can present an ongoing fire risk long after an accident has occurred. A compromised lithium-ion battery may enter thermal runaway hours or even days after the initial incident, creating challenges for towing operators, workshops, dealerships and vehicle storage facilities.
The EV Car Service Set provides a practical alternative to costly water-filled immersion containers, helping organisations safely store and transport damaged electric vehicles while reducing the risk of fire spread. Developed specifically for electric vehicles involved in accidents, the system uses a combination of top and bottom containment blankets to fully encapsulate the vehicle as a preventative safety measure.
If a battery incident occurs after transport or during storage, the system helps contain flames, heat, sparks and debris, protecting nearby vehicles, buildings and infrastructure. It also assists in retaining leaking vehicle fluids and reducing smoke development.
Designed for towing operators, vehicle recovery services, car dealerships, workshops, vehicle recyclers and quarantine storage facilities, the EV Car Service Set forms an important part of a comprehensive electric vehicle safety strategy.

EV Car Sevice Set FAQ
Electric vehicles involved in accidents may remain at risk of battery failure or thermal runaway for an extended period. The EV Car Service Set helps contain potential incidents during transport and storage, reducing the risk of fire spreading to surrounding vehicles, buildings and assets.
The system is ideal for towing operators, vehicle recovery services, workshops, dealerships, salvage yards, fleet operators and organisations responsible for storing or transporting damaged electric vehicles.
Yes. The EV Car Service Set has been developed specifically to support the safe transport and storage of accident-involved electric vehicles, helping manage the ongoing risks associated with damaged lithium-ion batteries.
The system is best used as a preventative measure whenever an electric vehicle has been involved in an accident or battery damage is suspected. Applying the system before transport or storage can help reduce the consequences of a battery incident should one occur.
