Battery technology developer Ilika has commissioned its manufacturing plant for Stereax batteries and there is significant interest from medical technology companies, but it will be another year until sales start to ramp up so investors will have to be patient.
Process optimisation and product qualification continues at the facility and then initial products can be sold for pre-clinical studies for medical technology products. Management has decided to focus on this sector rather than the sensors market. Sales will be slower building up, but the medical markets could be much bigger.
Ilika plc (LON:IKA) is a pioneer in solid state battery technology enabling solutions for applications in Industrial IoT, MedTech, Electric Vehicles and Consumer Electronics.
