Addionics, an Israeli battery technology start-up that has raised about $40 million to date, and is developing groundbreaking technology to improve battery performance, with a revolutionary focus on battery structure, is currently inaugurating a state-of-the-art, 'blue-and-white' production line, in the center of Tel Aviv, on the street whose name symbolizes the company's Israeli pride: Totseret HaArets (Hebrew for 'Made in Israel'). Alongside its advanced offices and laboratories that will focus on further technological developments and be used by its 50 employees, the company intends to use its unique chemistry-agnostic Smart 3D Electrodes™ technology for the electric vehicle battery industry - one of the world's fastest-growing industries. The new facility, inaugurated in January 2023, covers over 1,500 SQM and will serve as the company's headquarters, further to its London (UK), US and Germany offices.
Thin layers of 2D copper and aluminum are widely used for the production of battery electrodes. These metals are produced through a common process called "electro-deposition." Addionics' proprietary unique production method generates the same metals with great precision in a 3D structure, which allows for better performance at a lower cost. Addionics is the first company to develop this first-of-its-kind, patented process, which provides a long-sought-after solution to replace 2D metals with advanced metals and can be adapted to mass production at low costs.
