AKTIO Corporation (Headquarters: Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director, President and COO: Naoto Onuma, hereinafter AKTIO), a comprehensive construction equipment rental company, will begin renting its original "Charging Locker" and "Charging Storage Set" from Tuesday, April 7, 2026, aimed at taking countermeasures against fire risks caused by power tool batteries and preventing theft.
In recent years, lithium-ion batteries for power tools have become indispensable at construction sites. However, lithium-ion batteries are sensitive to heat, and fire troubles during storage and charging tend to increase, especially between May and August when temperatures rise. To reduce these fire risks, AKTIO has developed the "Charging Locker" and "Charging Storage Set" that realize a safe charging environment.
The "Charging Locker" is a security locker with built-in fire-extinguishing film, ideal for use in offices and site workshops. Each compartment is equipped with a fire-extinguishing film that releases an extinguishing aerosol in reaction to heat in the event of a fire. The extinguishing agent is harmless to the human body and the environment, so it can be used safely even inside offices. In addition, all compartments are equipped with combination locks, protecting valuables such as power tools, smartphones, and tablets from theft risks.
The "Charging Storage Set" is designed for use at work sites and is a set specialized for preventing the spread of fire, used in conjunction with a security rack. The fire-proof cover utilizes silica cloth material with a heat resistance performance of over 1,000°C. Even if a fire breaks out, it contains it within the rack, preventing it from spreading to the surroundings and keeping damage to a minimum. It comes as a set with a power strip, fire alarm, fire extinguisher stand, etc., allowing for the immediate construction of a safe charging station.
Furthermore, both the "Charging Locker" and "Charging Storage Set" employ overcurrent breakers and earth leakage breakers, meaning that even in the unlikely event of a leakage, the main power supply of the building itself will not be affected.
■ Charging Locker
【Features】
1. Realizes initial fire extinguishing with built-in "fire-extinguishing film" in each locker compartment.
2. Prevents theft with combination locks equipped in all 12 compartments.
