VOGT-CTE - WE DELIVER FLAME RETARDANTS

The increasing prevalence of lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles, solar systems, and many electronic devices brings not only technological advancements but also new challenges in fire safety.

Fires caused by lithium-ion batteries pose unique risks, as conventional fire extinguishers designed for standard fire types are often not adequately effective.

This can delay extinguishment and significantly increase the extent of damage and danger. In response to this issue, “FlameBlock Lithium Black” is introduced as an innovative safety solution specifically developed for lithium-ion battery fires.

NOPANIC by FIRELAB - Extinguishing agent for pan and oil fires - The small safety package for frying pan fires

NOPANIC by FIRELAB – The Small Safety Package for Small, Incipient Frying Pan Fires. A frying pan fire can happen faster than you think. One moment of inattention, the oil gets too hot, smoke begins to rise, and suddenly the pan is in flames. It is crucial in that moment not to panic and especially not to do anything wrong.

NoPanic is a small, readily accessible package for the kitchen. It is designed to help you respond calmly and effectively to a small, incipient frying pan fire. The package is carefully placed in the pan and helps extinguish the fire. NoPanic does not replace caution, a call for help, or common sense. But it can help you act correctly in those crucial first seconds.

No Panic in Case of a Pan Fire

A grease fire in the kitchen is dangerous. Even more dangerous is the wrong reaction. Pouring water on burning oil risks a sudden flare-up and severe burns. NoPanic helps you act calmly and correctly in the first few seconds. The small safety package is carefully added to the pan in the event of a small, starting fire. It is compact, easily accessible, and specifically designed for emergencies in the kitchen. NoPanic belongs where adults can quickly reach it. But it should never be in children’s hands. And it must never be confused with food.

In the case of a grease or pan fire, the greatest danger is often not only the fire itself but also the wrong reaction to it. Many people panic and reach for water. This is dangerous with burning oil or fat. When water enters hot or burning fat, it instantly turns into steam. This can cause the burning fat to be ejected from the pan. A small flame can turn into a large fireball in seconds. This can catch your face, hands, arms, clothing, hood, furniture, or curtains on fire.
Therefore, the rule for any pan fire is:

  • Never use water.
  • Do not carry the pan around.
  • Do not blow on it.
  • Do not use wet towels.
  • No experiments.


NoPanic
is designed to enable a simple and clear action precisely at that moment.

What is NoPanic?

NoPanic is a compact safety package for small, starting kitchen fires involving cooking oil or fat. It belongs in every kitchen, but in the right place: well visible and quickly accessible to adults, yet safely out of reach of children. Very important:

  • NoPanic is not a chocolate bar.
  • NoPanic is not food.
  • NoPanic is not a toy.
  • NoPanic must not be eaten, opened, or misused.


It is a safety product and must be treated as such.

When is NoPanic used?

NoPanic is designed for situations where a pan fire is just starting and the flames are still contained within the pan. It should only be used if:

  • the flames are still small
  • the pan is safe to reach
  • the escape route remains clear
  • there is no heavy smoke in the room
  • no range hood, furniture, or objects are on fire
  • An adult can use NoPanic without risking their safety


Once the fire grows larger, spreads, or if there is any uncertainty, the rules are: step back, warn others, leave the room, close doors, and call the fire department.

This is how NoPanic is used correctly

  • Stay Calm – Don’t become frantic. Avoid running. Don’t reach for water. Take a moment to breathe and act mindfully.
  • Turn off the heat source – If it’s safe to do so, turn off the stove, deactivate the cooktop, or shut off the gas supply. Do not move the pan.
  • Use NoPanic – Only adults should use NoPanic. Keep a safe distance from the flame. Do not lean over the pan, and avoid bringing loose clothing near the flame.
  • Carefully add NoPanic to the pan – This is very important: do not throw NoPanic into the pan. Throwing can cause hot fat to splatter, leading to larger flames or spreading fire. NoPanic should be added to the pan calmly, controlled, and cautiously. Do not fling, drop, or throw it in hastily. Do not lean over the pan.
  • Immediately step back – After adding NoPanic, step back right away. Do not reach into the pan. Do not stir. Do not shake. Do not add water.
  • Let the pan cool – Even if no flames are visible, the pan remains very hot. The oil or fat can ignite again if moved or if more oxygen is introduced. Leave the pan undisturbed to cool completely.
  • Call the fire department if in doubt – If the fire does not diminish right away, if smoke appears, if flames spread, or if you are uncertain: leave the kitchen and call the fire department. Safety always comes first.

What you should never do in case of a pan fire

In case of a pan fire, no spontaneous experiments should be conducted. Many well-meaning reactions can worsen the situation. Never:

  • pour water into the pan
  • carry the pan to the sink
  • swirl or tilt the pan
  • extinguish with a wet cloth
  • blow on the flames
  • throw flour, sugar, or other kitchen ingredients in
  • hold the pan under the range hood
  • NoPanic “throw” into the pan
  • allow children or untrained individuals to intervene
  • lean over the burning pan


A pan fire is not a moment for bravado. It is about acting quickly, calmly, and safely.

Why water is so dangerous

Burning oil is much hotter than boiling water. When water hits this hot fat, it instantly turns to steam. This steam expands explosively and carries small burning fat droplets with it. The result can be a huge flame that spreads upward and forward. The face, eyes, hands, arms, and upper body are especially at risk. The kitchen can also catch fire immediately. Particularly, range hoods, grease deposits, curtains, wood, plastic, and paper can ignite. Therefore, the rule always is: Never extinguish a grease fire with water.

Storage of NoPanic

NoPanic should be stored in a way that makes it easy to find in an emergency. At the same time, it must be out of reach of children. The ideal place is:

  • clearly visible
  • dry
  • clean
  • not directly above the stove
  • not next to open flames
  • not at children’s height
  • not in a drawer full of food
  • not next to chocolate, snacks, or sweets
  • clearly recognizable as a safety product

NoPanic should be readily accessible for adults but not freely accessible to children.

Warnings

  • Warning: Only for small, initial pan fires involving cooking oil or fat.
  • Never use water. Water can cause flare-ups, spread the fire, and lead to severe burns in grease fires.
  • Do not throw. Carefully pour NoPanic into the pan. Throwing can splash hot fat and spread the fire.
  • Not a food product. Do not eat, open, taste, or misuse NoPanic.
  • Keep away from children. Store within reach of adults, but out of children’s reach.
  • Only use without personal risk. If large flames, heavy smoke, or fire spread occurs, immediately withdraw and call the fire department.
  • After use: Allow the pan to cool completely. Do not consume residues. Dispose of oil, fat, and product remnants properly. Clean the pan thoroughly multiple times or dispose of it if damaged.
  • Not suitable for: Person fires, electrical fires, gas fires, grill fires, oven fires, extractor hood fires, extensive kitchen fires, or unknown fire causes.
