Thermal Stop™
Lithium-Ion Battery Fire Extinguishing Agent
What is Thermal Stop™?
Thermal Stop™ is your go-to solution for extinguishing lithium-ion battery fires caused by thermal runaway. As the only suppressant on the market specifically designed to eliminate thermal runaway, Thermal Stop™ sets a new standard in fire safety.
This all-natural, non-hazardous solution operates in three powerful ways: its superior endothermic properties provide super-fast cooling, effectively halting thermal runaway within just 30 seconds. By interrupting the chemical reactions within the battery, Thermal Stop™ blocks dangerous off-gassing and encapsulates harmful PFAS chemicals found in some lithium-ion batteries.
Designed for efficiency, Thermal Stop™ requires only a small amount to tackle large fires, making cleanup simple. Featuring patented formulation technology developed and owned by Redline Fire Solutions, Thermal Stop™ delivers exceptional performance when needed most.
Key Features
How Thermal Stop™ Works
Three-Part Suppression System
1. Suppresses
Rapidly extinguishes the fire as well as blocks dangerous off-gassing and encapsulates harmful PFAS chemicals found in some lithium-ion batteries.
2. Cools
Superior endothermic properties provide super-fast cooling within just 30 seconds.
3. Stops
Effectively halts thermal runaway. Neutralizes the chemical reaction within the electrolyte solution and forms a porous barrier, condensing toxic gases.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do you get Thermal Stop™ into the batteries?
Responding fire departments typically arrive on scene within 5-8 minutes. By that time, the battery has often burned through the floorboard. Handle the situation as a normal vehicle fire—suppress the flames, and once knocked down, inject Thermal Stop™'s patented plant-based solution into the burned area. Less than 5 gallons of Thermal Stop™ has been proven to stop EV thermal runaway.
Q: How can we handle runoff after contact with hazardous materials?
Thermal Stop™'s efficiency means that typically 5 gallons or less is needed to handle EV thermal runaway events. Standard absorbents carried on fire apparatus will be more than enough for cleanup.
Q: Can Thermal Stop™ be used in engine AB tanks?
Absolutely. As EVs become more common and regulations phase out internal combustion vehicles, fire departments may want to designate or add a "C" tank for Thermal Stop™. It can also be used in your existing A or B tanks as EV demographics shift across the U.S.
