The Perfect Chemistry

Battrix first made waves at the Auto Expo 2020 as a 'Made In India' validated product. The future technologies division Kabra Extrusiontechnik Ltd.( of the Kolsite Group) back then showcased the 'Smart Lithium Ion Battery Pack' in different configurations including a 48V/91 Ah specification with a charging time of three to four hours. Its 60V/26 Ah battery pack came with a similar configuration and the company topped it with a 72V/50 Ah battery pack that came along with a fast charging time of zero to two hours. Fast forward to 2022 and besides lithium-ion battery packs with some interesting features as an early adopter, the company has since forayed into modules for e-vehicles, and Battery Management Systems (BMS). The journey that commenced in 2017 had the company lay a strong foundation with technical collaborations like the one with European company Unicor GmbH (Germany) in addition to the one with Mecanor Oy (Finland) to leverage the latter's patented design and manufacturing process. Speaking about the early mover advantage, Anand Kabra, Managing Director, Battrixx, commented, "We didn't have a very clear idea of who our customers would be. But just the belief that the whole e-mobility space is going to turn around and it's going to be the future drove us."
