CellBlock FCS DOT Special Permits

CellSafe packaging was engineered by CellBlock FCS to provide safe transportation of lithium-ion batteries and cells (EV batteries, tool or device batteries, batteries or cells destined for recycling) and products that containing lithium-ion batteries (cellphones, tablets, and laptops). As such, these highly effective lithium-ion battery shipping solutions are UN certified and have earned special permits from the U.S. Department of Transportation. CellBlock’s special permits boast the most impressive and useful latitude in the industry due to the strength of the testing data.
