FunktioMat

FunktioMat is a Finnish company that produces high-performance battery materials from renewable/recyclable resources.

We have invented a technology that focuses on producing graphite for Li-ion battery anode material.

Our product is a 2H graphite of 99.95% purity manufactured from sustainable resources, using either biomass-based or recycled raw materials.

2H graphite is suitable as anode material for Li-ion batteries in, for example, EVs (Electric Vehicles) and PHEVs (Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicles).
