The 2021 calendar is about to tear off the last page. How many of the flags you set up at the beginning of the year have been achieved? 2021 is the most important year for LBM. We will start again, reborn, and grow into a group of more than 500 people. The team, the industrial layout is all over the world, and has taken the first step of LBM's "globalization strategy focusing on LFP materials"...

This year, a lot of keywords have also emerged in the lithium battery industry: "price increase", "lithium iron phosphate and ternary", "sodium ion battery", etc. Just a few words, but they carry the bits and pieces of the past. Today, we won't talk about the industry, let's take stock of LBM's 2021 keywords with the editor!

Veteran New Hair

LBM was established in May 2021, but the history of the company can be traced back to Longpan Technology established in 2003 and Bettray established in 2000. Relying on its platform advantages in material chemistry, Longpan Technology has entered the lithium battery industry, and has cooperated with Better Technology. Ruiqiang strong alliance, complementary advantages. In 2021, Changzhou Liyuan New Energy Technology Co., Ltd., a lithium battery cathode material enterprise jointly established by the two main board listed companies, was officially established. "Veteran New Development", LBM will inherit the excellent genes of Longpan Technology and Bertray, based on technology and innovation, relying on the dual focus of quality and service, and under the promotion of the national carbon neutrality policy, to provide users with high-quality products products and services, contributing to the vigorous development of the new energy industry.

backed by big coffee

LBM not only has the industry-leading enterprise background of the main board listed companies Longpan Technology and Bettray, but also has in-depth cooperation at the capital level with well-known enterprises such as Ningde Times and Xinyangfeng. According to the announcement on October 18 this year, the wholly-owned subsidiary of Ningde Times, Ningbo Meishan Bonded Port Area Aspiration Investment Co., Ltd., and the equity investment company of Ningde Times, Fujian Times Mindong New Energy Industry Equity Investment Partnership, plan to pay 165 million yuan and 165 million yuan respectively. 180 million yuan to increase the capital of LBM. It marks the further deepening of the cooperative relationship between LBM and CATL, and the new energy business of LBM will also enter a new starting point.

capacity expansion

In just one year, LBM has deployed in many domestic and international regions. It has built factories in Jiangsu, Tianjin, Sichuan, Shandong, Hubei, Shenzhen and other places to expand production capacity. After the completion of factories in various places, the annual production capacity of LFP can reach 300,000 tons. , the iron phosphate production capacity can reach 150,000 tons. LBM now has six wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Betterray (Tianjin) Nanomaterials Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Betterray Nanotechnology Co., Ltd., Sichuan Liyuan New Materials Co., Ltd., Shandong LBM Co., Ltd., and Liyuan (Shenzhen) Scientific Research Co., Ltd., Hubei Liyuan New Energy Technology Co., Ltd., and a joint-stock subsidiary, Hubei Fengli New Energy Technology Co., Ltd., and an international holding subsidiary, Liyuan (Asia Pacific) New Energy Technology Co., Ltd.

Layout overseas

LBM has always been adhering to the goal of "focusing on the globalization strategy of LFP materials", and has made investment arrangements with an international perspective. In November 2021, LBM and investment institution STELLAR INVESTMENT PTE. LTD. plan to invest and set up a joint venture company in Indonesia to invest in the development and construction of Morowali Industrial Park (IMIP), Morowali County, Central Sulawesi Province. 100,000 tons of lithium iron phosphate cathode material project, LBM holds a 70% stake in the joint venture. At the moment when the lithium iron phosphate industry is in full swing, LBM has also become the first Chinese lithium iron phosphate manufacturer to go abroad and enter the overseas market.

Technological innovation

In November, LBM officially announced the establishment of the research institute headquarters in Shenzhen - Liyuan (Shenzhen) Scientific Research Co., Ltd. As the core institution of LBM R&D and innovation, the headquarters of the research institute focuses on the R&D of lithium iron phosphate, a cathode material for lithium-ion batteries, and new materials in the future. It is planned to invest a huge amount of funds as R&D funds according to a certain proportion of the turnover every year to further enhance the innovation ability of LBM. . The establishment of Liyuan (Shenzhen) Scientific Research Co., Ltd. has comprehensively enhanced the core competitiveness of LBM in the field of new energy materials and provided scientific research support for the sustainable and stable development of LBM.

budding

As a "new face of the industry", LBM is extraordinary. In October, at the 2021 (16th) International Forum on Power Lithium Battery Technology and Industry Development held in Shenzhen, LBM emerged as a co-organizer at the forum, discussing the new development of the industry with many industry leaders, showing its strength for the first time It is recognized by the industry! In December, at the 6th Power Battery Application International Summit held in Ganzhou, Jiangxi, LBM won the unanimous recognition of the participating industry experts for its outstanding contributions in the field of new energy materials, and won the "Lithium Think 2021 Annual Impact" in one fell swoop. Power Enterprise (Cathode Material) Award".
