Nano One Materials Corp. is a cleantech developer focused on patented processing technologies for the scalable, low-cost production of cathode materials used in lithium-ion batteries. Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, the company’s core innovation is its One-Pot processing platform, which enables the synthesis, doping and coating of cathode active materials in a single reactor. This streamlined approach aims to reduce production steps, lower energy use and minimize waste compared with conventional multi-stage manufacturing methods.
Through its technology, Nano One has demonstrated improved performance for a range of cathode chemistries, including lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC) and lithium iron phosphate (LFP). By optimizing crystal structure and surface coatings, the company seeks to enhance energy density, thermal stability and cycle life, addressing key challenges for electric vehicle and stationary storage applications. Sustainability considerations are woven into the platform, with a focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and eliminating harmful byproducts.
Nano One operates a pilot-scale demonstration plant in Bécancour, Quebec, designed to validate its processes under industrial conditions. The company has forged partnerships with materials suppliers and battery manufacturers across North America, Europe and Asia to advance scale-up efforts and pave the way for commercial licensing. These collaborations are intended to integrate Nano One’s processes into existing supply chains and support the growing demand for advanced battery materials driven by global electrification trends.
Founded in 2011, Nano One has built an intellectual property portfolio exceeding 40 patents and patent applications. Led by President and CEO Dr. Dan Blondal, the company draws on expertise in materials science, process engineering and clean energy innovation. Nano One continues to expand its technical team and engage with automakers, battery producers and mining partners to accelerate the adoption of its cathode technology and contribute to the evolution of sustainable energy storage solutions.
