Description :

There is no doubt about it, the new age for batteries and the electrification of everything around us will cause demand for battery factories to rise exponentially over the next three years.

The recent Tesla Gigafactory could be just the beginning of dozens of more as production of Lithium Ion batteries is expected to triple in three years.

Right now lithium and cobalt are getting the focus but we must not forget graphite which is used in Lithium Ion batteries as an anode.

Right now the need is not for graphite concentrate but for the upgraded, processed and finished graphite product which can be used by end users.

One little company is competing against some of the big boys and getting attention from the marketplace as they have fulfilled orders from customers that began in 2016 and are planning to go through a major growth plan as they have partnered with purification partners with commercial scale ability in one of the great locations in the USA.

I have watched this company for years prepare and position themselves for this growth however it is now completely ignored and laughed at by the market trading near two year lows even though it has a near term path to cash flow shaping and coating graphite for the battery industry.

If they announce an order to a battery manufacturer then it could be a game changer for this little processing company.

Before introducing this story to my readers I had a chance to speak to Mike Coscia who is the companies Head of Sales with 30 years of mineral and chemical experience selling and marketing for huge companies like SGL Carbon, Cabot Corp and Bayer Chemical as well as Exxon Chemicals. His background in chemical engineering and material science has made him well know as the go to person to help customers with their technical specifications for the specific graphite needed for their application.

After Mike was hired the little company announced sales that I believe was to the oil drilling industry. The company has been working with end users in a wide range of industries to qualify their graphite for particular applications.

While the first customers are in drilling and lubricants I expect this year to be the time the little company gets business in the battery and energy storage business. They have been working on finished graphite materials that can be used specifically to improve batteries and raise the bar for the industry.

They just hired a new PhD Chief Science Officer who is a world class expert on battery fuel cell technology and graphite. This could be just the beginning of a breakthrough for the company to transition into the battery business with this scientist’s electrochemistry experience and leverage off the existing revenue generating business in drilling and lubricants.
