Altilium is pleased to showcase the successful production of the UK’s first EV battery cells using recycled cathode active materials (CAM) at the UK Battery Industrialisation Centre (UKBIC), the UK’s national battery manufacturing scale-up facility.

The breakthrough marks the first time that recycled materials have been used to produce new battery cells in an industrial environment in the UK and marks an important step towards the development of a circular economy for EV batteries.

The pouch cells were manufactured at UKBIC’s state-of-the-art facility in Coventry using Altilium’s recycled EcoCathode™ NMC 811-2036 CAM, produced at its recycling facilities in Devon.
