OUR HISTORY
When we started Brimstone Fire Protection, our focus was fireproof storage bags. We wanted to provide a solution for the average person to keep their valuables safe.
Soon after, lithium-ion battery fires hit the news. We knew lithium-ion thermal runaways were harder to fight than other fires and realized containment might be the best solution.
Luckily, we were already testing materials designed to withstand tremendous amounts of heat, so we were able to start producing fire containment bags as well.
Within a year, we had successfully created our first fire containment bags and introduced them to the market. It turned out our timing was perfect; reports of the Samsung Note 7 Smartphone overheating and causing fires created public awareness of the threat of lithium-ion battery fires. We immediately saw a huge increase in orders, and we’ve continued to grow ever since.
As lithium-ion batteries become more common, we continue to expand our product line. We now offer fireproof storage and fire containment bags, but also blankets, misters, and other gear that’s effective and easy to use. No matter what new challenges modern fires create, we will be ready to find a solution that helps keep people safe.
