Section 2 – How the Company Makes Money?

2A – Operational Model

• Procurement of Raw Materials & Backward Integration

• Cathode Active Material - Lithium Ferro Phosphate (LFP) as Cathode Active Material (CAM)

• Quality Testing combined with R&D

Internal materials required battery manufacturing are hazardous and require quality testing. Quality assurance is utmost important; hence the final product goes through rigorous in-house lab testing. 

• Customer Audit 

Once the final product is tested and ensured that quality meets the global standard, customer audit and validation stage follows. This part involves deep vetting process by global OEM. Customer audit may take months and even years before placing commercial order.
