    Torbjörn Sternsjö, Chairman of the Board at Altris AB
    The European automotive industry has fully embraced electrification, thanks to the products being delivered by Northvolt - so it’s safe to say that the company is in good hands. It’s time for me to now lend a helping hand in the next missing piece of the puzzle needed to further speed up the energy transition – sodium-ion batteries. These batteries are not only a safer, longer lasting, cheaper and greener alternative – but they can also can be made out of almost unlimited and readily available raw materials.
    Martin Anderlind, CEO of Altris AB
    We’re delighted to name Sandviken as the home of our first industrial manufacturing facility. Ferrum is not only an important milestone in Altris’ history, but its very existence shows the confidence of our investors and customers in the future of sodium-ion batteries.
    Tim Nordh, Altris CTO
    It's great news that Altris wants to establish their business in Sandviken municipality. Altris will also be a strong addition to our brand Sandviken Pure Power™. The establishment was made possible thanks to a constructive collaboration with Sandvik Materials Technology.
    Jan Fagerström, Head of Business Unit, Sandviken Municipality
    With our new financial backing we stand ready to provide customers with the knowledge and materials they need to fulfil their sodium-ion battery aspirations, at a time where interest in this technology has never been greater. Our new industrial manufacturing unit will ensure that Fennac-based batteries become a reality within 2 years.
    Adam Dahlquist, Altris CEO
    We are happy to continue supporting Altris through new investment and are proud to back a company with such potential to empower a sustainable energy future. Using only abundant materials, Altris’ technology provides strong economic and environmental benefits to enable the next generation of batteries that will initially accelerate the deployment of grid-scale storage applications. We look forward to a bright future together.
    Markus Berglund, Investment Manager, EIT InnoEnergy Scandinavia
    It is a great honour that Altris is again named as 1 of the 33 best and most innovative tech companies in Sweden.
