IBU-tec Highlights LFP Battery Materials at US and India Trade Shows

IBU-tec advanced materials AG (“IBU-tec,” ISIN: DE000A0XYHT5) is stepping up its international presence in the battery sector by exhibiting at the world’s most important Battery Shows in Detroit, USA, and Greater Noida, India. At the German Pavilion of the Battery Show in Detroit in mid-October, IBU-tec held promising discussions with potential customers. The Democratic Governor of Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer, visited the IBU-tec booth and emphasized the high relevance of a secure value chain for battery material production in North America. IBU-tec highlighted its many years of process know-how and outstanding technology platform, which position it strongly and meet all regulatory requirements for battery material production in the USA. At the German Pavilion of the Battery Show in Greater Noida, India, IBU-tec engaged in technical discussions with numerous visitors over three days and presented its extensive battery product portfolio. The company provided potential new international partners with well-founded insights into its development projects, products, and service offerings in both the anode and cathode segments. In addition to a focus on LFP battery material, activities centered on various discussions and meetings outside the trade show to further expand IBU-tec’s own raw material sources.

The presence in the growing sales markets of India and the USA aligns with IBU-tec’s internationalization strategy and reinforces its strong global positioning as a European supplier in the battery ecosystem. It also confirms the company’s growing international visibility. The Battery Shows in the USA and India are leading events for the global battery industry, attracting international battery corporations, large OEMs, and various service providers. This year, global players such as Siemens, Stellantis, and LG participated, with more than 34,000 attendees in total. Ulrich Weitz, CPO of IBU-tec, commented: “Through our trips to India and the USA, we were able to deepen existing collaborations and initiate new partnerships. With this, we are taking our international activities to the next level and reinforcing our claim to be a global battery company.” The IBU-tec Group develops and produces innovative materials of the highest quality for industry, combining unique, partly patent-protected thermal process technology with the process and material know-how of around 230 highly qualified employees. Its own products include LFP battery material, an important component of batteries for electromobility and stationary energy storage, as well as solutions for air purification, resource conservation, and the reduction of plastic packaging. IBU-tec is thus positioned for the long term in global megatrends—especially climate and environmental protection—and has an international customer base ranging from innovative medium-sized companies to global corporations.
