Modern Fire Risks Require Modern Solutions

Traditional Fire Extinguishers Fall Short

Heavy, require training, create messy cleanup costing thousands, and can't handle lithium-ion battery fires - the fastest-growing fire risk in homes.

New Fire Risks Emerge

Phones, laptops, e-bikes, and electric vehicles contain lithium batteries that burn differently and can re-ignite hours after being "extinguished."

Technology Evolution

Modern fire safety products handle more fire types, require no training, leave no cleanup, and work upside down for real emergency situations.
