There is an ever increasing risk to air freight posed by Class D metal fires. Class D fires include lithium. Lithium is a common material used in the manufacturing of batteries. Batteries are so prevalent in modern devices that they are quickly becoming the the dominant cause of fires aboard aircraft. Currently lithium batteries are not classified as hazardous materials. As such, batteries and the multitude of devices that they are installed in can be shipped worldwide with little or no control. Lithium batteries have been identified as being involved in at least 44 air transport incidents fires within the past few years onboard aircraft1. Ventura Aerospace Fire Suppression Systems have been shown to be effective in suppressing these types of fire.

MAIN DECK FIRE SUPPRESSION
LOWER DECK FIRE SUPPRESSION
Lower deck solutions base on our Cargo Foam systems for the main deck have been evaluated. Our design philosophy has been one of a dual role compo net usage. This makes our system easily adaptable to lower deck usage on wide body aircraft with no loss of ULD capability or capacity.
