Lithium Battery Labels for Safe Transportation!

With transportation comes regulations of how certain items can be shipped from one place to another. There are special packaging requirements for items that can be harmful if handled improperly.

The growth of electronic products has increased the demand for lithium batteries all over the world. However, they can be very dangerous and must be handled with caution. There are certain size and watt limits for lithium batteries and the ways they can be transported. Specifically, storing lithium batteries as cargo on a passenger aircraft is banned due to the chance of a catastrophic explosion. The energy created by these batteries can short circuit and catch on fire due to the chemical content.

Yes we have labels for that!

Ensuring the batteries are securely packaged inside is important, but proper labeling on the outside of the package is essential. Our lithium battery labels provide a clear warning of the package contents.

The word “CAUTION” is displayed in bold letters to catch the attention of the handler. There is also a blank space to indicate if the lithium battery is lithium ion or lithium metal. The label includes pictures to help reinforce the fragility, what’s inside, and the flammability. The label is outlined with a red border for added distinction. If the handler has further questions, they can call the number at the bottom of the label.

We can customize them too!

If you’d like to have these labels pre-printed with your information, they can be customized for you and arrive ready to use!

You can insert the type of lithium battery you are transporting and a phone number if more information is needed. You receive an immediate proof of the label and from there you can choose how many rolls you want. Each roll has 500 labels. These custom lithium battery labels are convenient and easy to use! Labels provide a visual for handlers that will rarely be missed.
