NOVONIX Achieves Critical Operational Milestone
- Delivered first mass production, commercial-grade sample of synthetic graphite to a major North American processor
- Riverside facility poised to become first large-scale production site for high-performance synthetic graphite in North America
- Plans for second synthetic graphite manufacturing plant in Chattanooga to increase total production capacity to over 50,000 tonnes per year
NOVONIX Limited, a leading battery materials and technology company, announced the delivery of its first mass production, commercial-grade sample of synthetic graphite for industrial applications to one of North America's largest value-added carbon processors with a global market reach. This demonstrates that industrial-grade products can be produced using NOVONIX's proprietary continuous graphitization furnace technology at a mass production scale, which is another step towards bringing their battery-grade materials to market. As NOVONIX continues to scale its Riverside facility, the ability to provide volumes to markets outside the battery space diversifies their product portfolio and provides the opportunity to increase planned production for 2026. NOVONIX's Riverside facility is poised to become the first large-scale production site dedicated to high-performance synthetic graphite for the battery, defense, and industrial sectors in North America, with mass production starting next year for its lead customer, Panasonic. To meet increasing customer demand, the Company previously announced plans for its second synthetic graphite manufacturing plant, also in Chattanooga, Tennessee, known as the Enterprise South location. Together, these facilities will give NOVONIX a total production capacity of over 50,000 tonnes per year.
