Your formulation, built into a working cell.
The BIC turns a customer’s formulation, any chemistry from established Li-ion to next-generation sodium-ion, lithium-sulfur, and aluminum-ion, into a working cell. Roll-to-roll coating and proof-of-concept builds run under one roof, backed by 13 years of process know-how.

What We Do
Design and Development
- Formulation and slurry recipes
- Early-stage materials R&D
- Material characterization: rheology, moisture
Mix and Coat
- High-shear Ross mixer, to 5,000 rpm
- Reverse comma roll-to-roll coating
- Heated calender and slitter
Cell Fabrication
- Pouch stacking fixtures, can groover
- Laser ablation, ultrasonic welding
- Electrolyte fill, vacuum seal

An Extension of Your R&D Team
The BIC owns no chemistry and takes no customer IP, so what leaves the fab floor is a cell built to your recipe, ready to test and shipped back to your own lab.
A PhD scientist scopes every engagement directly with the customer, defining the experiment before it ever reaches the mixer, and a dedicated team carries it through formulation, build, and validation. It’s PhD-level expertise without the overhead of hiring it in-house.
