Big News in Fire Safety
Class L Is Officially Here
The “Lithium Age” has officially moved beyond legacy fire classifications. In January 2026, ISO published ISO 3941:2026, introducing a dedicated fire class for Lithium-ion battery fires: Class L.
Why Class L Is a Game Changer
For years, Lithium ion incidents were managed under traditional Class A or B assumptions. Safety professionals know this approach was never fully adequate.
Lithium
ion fires behave differently due to:
Thermal runaway that creates a self-sustaining heat cycle
Extremely high energy density, producing intense and persistent heat
Toxic and hazardous by-products requiring controlled response measures
The critical need for thermal control and cooling, not just oxygen isolation
Class L formally recognizes these realities and sets the foundation for more accurate risk control.
What’s Next for Global Standards
In Europe, EN 2 currently defines Classes A, B, C, D, and F. However, alignment is accelerating. CEN/TC 70 is already developi
