Feon achieves UN 38.3 safety certification for lithium-metal batteries

Since launching in late 2022, Feon has rapidly achieved key technical milestones. As its first product, Feon has developed lithium-metal batteries with energy densities over 400 Wh/kg, a 50% improvement over today’s lithium-ion batteries. The company has begun to ship such pre-A samples to leading automotive, aviation, and consumer electronics customers.

Critically, these lithium-metal cells have obtained UN 38.3 safety certification – an international standard for safely transporting lithium batteries. Meeting UN 38.3 requirements through rigorous third-party testing confirms that Feon’s batteries can withstand extreme conditions like short-circuiting, crushing, vibration, forced discharge, and exposure to high temperatures. This critically important safety validation paves the way for commercial deployment of Feon’s high-energy lithium-metal solution.
