What we have to offer

Battery Materials Development

ARC supports next-generation battery development by enabling materials, components, and interfaces that perform reliably in real cells and systems.

We work with OEMs, cell manufacturers, and technology developers to take battery concepts from feasibility through to validation and scale-up.

What We Do

  • Electrode material and interface development

  • Advanced copper foil utilisation and characterisation

  • Ultra-light bimetallic battery tab design and testing

  • Material compatibility assessments (foils, electrolytes, coatings)

  • Pilot-scale trials for EV, eVTOL, aerospace, and high-performance applications

Outcomes for customers: Higher energy density, reduced weight, improved cycle life, enhanced reliability, and faster validation of new materials.

Laser Surface Engineering

ARC develops and validates laser-based surface engineering processes that replace traditional chemical surface treatments.

Our laser solutions deliver high-performance surface functionality while removing the environmental and operational burden associated with wet chemical processing.

What We Do

  • Laser surface texturing and activation

  • Adhesion enhancement for metal–polymer systems

  • Corrosion-resistant surface modification

  • Precision laser processing of thin metals and foils

  • Process development from lab validation to industrial integration

All processes are developed with manufacturability in mind.

Stage-gated Approach

Our project management adopts a stage-gated approach with meticulously crafted work packages designed to swiftly achieve project goals and validate concepts early in the process.

Our cooperative and collaborative approach ensures flexibility, enabling us to adapt work packages rapidly, providing our partners with full control over project dynamics.

With ARC there are no requirements for long-term contracts; instead, we prioritise fast and honest feedback with a key driver for achieving efficient and impactful results.
