Making homes safe for children is a priority, yet some dangers are well-hidden in everyday spaces, like small batteries found in household items, but how much harm can something as tiny as a battery really cause? According to a case report in Malaysia, severe injuries can occur due to delayed diagnosis, as most emergency department patients who have ingested a battery show no symptoms or only vague and non-specific signs.[1]
Understanding this risk, Energizer Malaysia upholds its commitment to coin lithium safety with the launch of the "Know the Risks, Protect Your Kids," campaign and unveils its latest coin-cell lithium batteries with a 3-in-1 Child Shield™ safety system for added protection in Malaysian homes.
"Energizer is the first brand in the world to introduce child-resistant packaging for its coin-cell lithium batteries, featuring a triple-layer child safety system designed to offer extra protection against everyday risks. Our innovation includes the world's first colour alert technology, designed to help caregivers identify potential ingestion and seek urgent medical attention. As an industry leader, at Energizer, we want to advocate for stronger safety standards in battery designs. By continuously improving safety features for its products, we will continue to lead discussions on preventing household accidents and protecting children," said Diane Lee, Business Director, Malaysia & Singapore, Energizer Holdings Inc.
During the launch, Dr Wong Yee Ming, a Consultant Pediatrician from Columbia Asia Hospital Bukit Jalil, and real-life toddler parents Diyana Hashim, Pauline Tan, and Chelsea Ng participated in a panel discussion to discuss the real-life challenges faced in avoiding wrong ingestion, what to do during medical emergencies with ingestion, and share practical solutions to create a safer space for children at home.
Dr. Wong Yee Ming, Consultant Pediatrician from Columbia Asia Hospital Bukit Jalil shared, "Many household hazards are hidden in plain sight, making it crucial to raise awareness of potential risks for children. Small objects, such as coin lithium batteries, can cause serious harm if swallowed. Severe injuries can occur due to delayed diagnosis, which is why immediate medical attention is crucial. Preventing such incidents should be a priority, and simple measures, such as storing hazardous items out of reach and choosing child-safe products, can make a significant difference."
The 3-in-1 Child Shield™ safety system from Energizer is available across its 2032, 2025, and 2016 Ultimate Lithium Coin Battery range and has been designed as an option for those seeking to safeguard their homes.
The new 3-in-1 Child Shield™ safety system was designed to help prevent the risk coin lithium batteries pose to children by combining these three key safety features:

Special promotions will take place during this event.
Energizer's latest release embraces the power of technology to prioritise children's safety. The 3-in-1 Child Shield™ technology will be rolled out across the Energizer® Ultimate Lithium Coin Battery range and will be available in leading supermarkets and online.
