CleanTape® FR: A Halogen-Free Approach to EV Battery Fire Safety

As electric vehicle adoption grows, the importance of battery safety in preventing thermal events has never been more critical. Mactac introduces its CleanTape® FR product line, a series of non-halogenated, flame-retardant adhesive tapes specifically engineered for EV battery packs and energy storage systems. These tapes are designed to mitigate fire risks while simultaneously addressing common manufacturing and assembly challenges.

The portfolio targets the unique fire hazards present in lithium-ion battery environments, where flammability and heat propagation can pose serious threats. By offering a halogen-free solution, CleanTape® FR helps manufacturers comply with evolving safety standards without compromising on performance. The tapes are intended for applications such as cell wrapping, busbar insulation, and other critical thermal and electrical management points.

A dedicated webinar is set to explore these topics in depth, covering the fundamentals of EV battery fire risks, key regulatory requirements, and practical uses for flame-retardant tapes. Participants will gain insight into how this technology can contribute to safer, more reliable battery system designs, supporting the industry’s shift toward higher-performance and more secure energy solutions.
