Atom Alloys unveils its innovative new fuel storage explosion prevention system: the ATOM system.
It is the 1st Underwriters Laboratory-certified system for preventing fuel storage explosions without human intervention or triggering factors.

Atom Alloys unveils ATOM

Developed over a decade of research and development, ATOM is a technological innovation that eliminates the explosion of hydrocarbons.
It provides explosion protection for all those who store and transport fuels: the military, industry, local authorities and ordinary citizens.

1st solution of its kind certified by Underwriters Laboratory

Atom Alloys’ ATOM is the first solution certified by the American Underwriters Laboratory to offer a complete explosion prevention system for the storage of liquid and gaseous fuels, with no need for human intervention or triggering factors.
This new technology can be applied to both a single 20-liter jerrycan and an entire 60,000-liter fuel tank.

Meeting a global challenge
