Introducing a Special Discount Service for Lithium-Ion Battery Safety Testing

Chemtox Co., Ltd., headquartered in Ota City, Tokyo, is set to launch a limited-time service called LiB Adoption Assurance Test starting December 1, 2025. This initiative is designed specifically for businesses considering the adoption of lithium-ion battery (LiB) cells, and it will run until May 31, 2026.

Overview of the LiB Adoption Assurance Test

Safety has become a predominant concern in the production of mobile and other battery-powered devices. As such, Chemtox aims to ease the worries of companies by offering rapid evaluations of safety risks before the cells are incorporated into their products. The service includes a selection of one out of four specific tests prior to the integration of the cells in products:

• - External short circuit test
• - Overcharging test
• - Crush test
• - Nail penetration test

These tests are conducted in a newly established RC room (reinforced concrete room) designed with safety protocols, ensuring minimal impact on the surrounding areas, including nearby residences. The findings will be compiled into concise test reports, accompanied by photographs and videos from the testing process.

Service Details

• - Target Audience: Businesses considering the adoption of new lithium-ion battery cells, either through purchase or integration into new products.
• - Service Period: December 1, 2025 – May 31, 2026 (Limited Period)
• - Cost: 150,000 yen (excluding tax) for one selected test
• - Report Contents:

- A basic test report
- Photos and videos taken during testing

Rationale Behind the Service

In light of increasingly varied applications for devices powered by lithium-ion batteries, there has been a growing demand to verify the safety of these cells during the selection phase. Understanding behaviors such as whether a cell could lead to fire or just emit smoke is crucial for product design and customer communication.

Chemtox's role as a third-party evaluation body provides companies with visibility into battery safety through these tests. The company commits to an immediate testing approach with specially priced offerings to support efficient development processes. This limited-time discount is eagerly anticipated by developers eager to incorporate safer batteries into their products.
