Giga Battery Applications. Powering the future with precision.

High-technology battery applications demand precisely controlled environments. As lithium-ion batteries drive growth across industries — from EVs and energy storage to aerospace, healthcare, and telecoms — the need for reliable, high-performance facilities has never been greater. A lithium-ion battery is built on four essential components: the cathode, anode, electrolyte, and separator. Together, they enable the energy density, capacity, and safety that power today’s innovations. Energy density has already grown from 80Wh/kg in 1991 to over 250Wh/kg today, with breakthroughs expected to push this to 400–600Wh/ kg in the near future. These advances require specialised dry cleanroom environments to ensure quality, minimise defects, and maximise yield, reliability, and safety.

There are three dominant battery formats:

Cylindrical Proven, consistent, and cost-effective, widely used in EVs. Prismatic Space-efficient and robust, ideal for powertrains and storage. Pouch Lightweight, flexible, and highly efficient in packaging, with growing market dominance. Next-generation technologies, from solid-state to sodium- ion, promise even greater performance, higher capacities, and faster charging. With the evolution of these innovations, controlled dryroom environments remain critical to enabling safe, scalable, and sustainable battery production.

“With a positive culture at the core of a project — design, schedule, commercial and operations needs and targets can be met first. As a consequence the construction process can focus all efforts on its core elements such as safety, quality and production.”
