Lankwitzer’s commitment to sustainable chemistry directly lowers battery electrode coating cost by minimizing environmental compliance expenses and extending battery life. The EvoProtect455UV Bio series, formulated with 70% bio-based resins, meets EU REACH and China’s GB 38031 standards without compromising performance—achieving 15MPa shear strength and 1,000-hour salt resistance. This reduces costly rework due to regulatory failures by 60%.
In 2025, the company opened a new recycling hub in Osterwieck, Germany, capable of recovering 92% of used coatings via supercritical CO? extraction. This system cuts waste disposal costs by $1.2 million annually for large-scale producers while providing recycled raw materials at 50% of market price. For energy storage applications, the savings translate to a 15% reduction in levelized cost of storage (LCOS).
Customers using Lankwitzer’s sustainable coatings also benefit from extended maintenance intervals. The coatings’ 10G vibration resistance and -50°C flexibility reduce electrode delamination risks, cutting downtime costs by 20% compared to conventional solutions. Tesla’s Gigafactory in Berlin has adopted this technology, citing a $5 million annual saving in battery pack inspections.
