We are driven to create cheaper, safer, and more ethical and environmentally aware battery materials; to accelerate the domestic battery industry, secure sovereign capability, and enable Australia to compete at a global scale.
What we do
We are one of few companies outside China to successfully produce LFP. We do this by manufacturing LFP/LMFP materials using a proprietary production process. The LFP material has been verified using a commercially competitive process.
Here’s how
Our LFP products are produced by combining a lithium salt, phosphate source and an iron source which are processed through mixing and thermal treatment steps. Tested by NOVONIX Battery technology Solutions Inc., (a leading expert in battery materials research and development services), our LFP was proven to be either matched or exceeded competitor product across all testing parameters and has the potential to support for long-lifetime cell designs.

RC Process
Our process begins with rigorous independent assessment and validation conducted by highly credentialed chemical engineers, process engineers and battery researchers, ensuring that our products meet and exceed industry standards.
Lithium Manganese Ferro Phosphate
An emerging product offering a 15 to 20% increase in specific energy over LFP. Our RC production seamlessly transition from LFP to LMFP, ensuring readiness to meet future market demands setting us apart from other producers.
R&D and pilot facilities Brisbane
Established in 1999, acquired in 2018 as wholly owned subsidiary of Lithium Australia. Capacity to produce 2 tpa of material with 8 employees.
Our environmental impact
Sustainable and ethical
Positive ESG credentials in comparison to current processes with minimal solid and liquid wastes
Global demand for LFP batteries growing
Global demand for LFP batteries is rising. In 2022, LFP batteries held a 26% market share, with predictions indicating growth to 48% by 2033.
More Durable and environmentally friendly
LFP cells last longer and emit 15-25% fewer carbon emissions than NMC cells over their lifetime, making them a sustainable choice.
