Chinese maker of ultra-thin aluminum foil used as the cathode current collector in lithium-ion batteries, plus packaging foil.
Chinese maker of ultra-thin aluminum foil used as the cathode current collector in lithium-ion batteries, plus packaging foil.
Prices its foil as the aluminium metal cost plus a processing fee per tonne, so earnings follow the fee level and volumes rather than the metal price. Battery foil must be extremely thin and free of pinholes, so supply to battery makers is qualified customer by customer. Packaging and household foil supply steadier, lower-value work.
In one line: A Chinese battery-foil supplier to CATL-scale customers.
Moat: narrow (process know-how, customer qualification). Producing ultra-thin defect-free battery foil requires qualified precision rolling processes.
