Advanced battery materials for high-performance applications

Meet your performance and sustainability goals with premium battery materials, sustainably sourced and engineered for high power and long cycle life.

Upcycled battery materials perform better than new

With our patented Hydro-to-Cathode® direct precursor synthesis process, our sustainable battery materials can outperform traditional materials made with newly mined and refined metals. In a recent study, battery cells made with our upcycled cathode material exhibited over 50% longer cycle life than traditionally made cells, and power capacity was increased by 88%.
