(\"FCL\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV: FCLI) (OTCQB: FCLIF), a\n \n USA\n \n -based lithium-ion specialty firefighting agent manufacturer, reports that its proprietary\n \n\n FCL-X™\n \n\n lithium-ion battery fire extinguishing agent was successfully deployed by its expert firefighter partners at US Fire Pump to help fight one of the largest battery fires in US history.\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Late last year, a significant fire erupted at a facility near\n \n Fredericktown, Missouri\n \n . This plant, recognized as one of the world's largest lithium-ion battery recycling facilities, processes over 60,000 tons of batteries annually. Notwithstanding that the facility had state-of-the-art fire safety systems, it nevertheless was overwhelmed by the lithium-ion battery fire. The fire led to the evacuation of approximately 75 employees and nearby residents due to concerns about toxic smoke and potential explosions from the stored lithium-ion batteries. Luckily, there were no reported injuries. Firefighters from at least 25 departments collaborated to contain the blaze, which was challenging due to the nature of lithium-ion battery fires that are not readily extinguished by traditional fire extinguishing agents, can often reignite, and emit toxic gases. Specialized industrial firefighting teams, including the emergency response team at US Fire Pump (using FCL's specialty agent\n \n\n FCL-X&#...
