燃えない電池の普及で安全で安心、そして持続可能な生活が出来る社会を実現します!

We aim to realize a society where people can live a safe, secure, and sustainable life by promoting the use of non-flammable batteries!


Development Background

PIOTREK Corporation has been pursuing the ultimate in safety and has set a goal to contribute to society by developing a lithium-ion battery (LIB) that does not burn even if the battery is forcibly ignited (short-circuited). The LIB is a non-flammable, conductive polymer material. We then established our own formulation for the non-flammable LIB, and have reached the stage of developing this innovative system technology, materials, and components, together with processing equipment, for the global market.



■Features

*Efforts to eliminate lithium battery ignition and explosion accidents that exist in our daily lives

In our daily lives, there are many mobile electrical appliances and toys equipped with lithium batteries. Battery fires and explosions are increasing every year, and we are living side by side with the risk of not knowing when and where they may occur. To eliminate this risk, it is essential to switch to "non-flammable batteries.


LIB事故発生率

LIB Accident Incident Rate

                                167accidents in 2023,published by Fire Diffence Agency

Many small accidents are being happened in a daily life.


Conversion to "non-flammable batteries" has been made possible by materials and battery production technology developed by us.

The production of "non-flammable batteries" is made possible by our non-flammable conductive polymer materials, components, and processing equipment.

*There is still a risk of fire in today's next-generation batteries, even all solid-state batteries.

Therefore, we will promote the application of our "non-flammable batteries" to all-solid-state batteries as well.


We aim to become the leader in next-generation batteries.

The materials and ingredients of the "non-flammable battery" as well as the processing equipment are compatible with the high-capacity, high-voltage type batteries that are expected to become the next-generation batteries, and have the potential to become the flower of next-generation batteries.



About Returns

1. a thank-you e-mail for your support

2. contribution to society by achieving over 80% of the 50 million yen target

We will widely grant free of charge the basic patent for "non-burnable batteries" that we have established in the global market, and promote the use of "non-burnable batteries" in mobile electrical appliances, toys, etc. 

3. to bring safe, secure, and sustainable life styles to as many households as possible.

We will do our utmost to create an era in which the production of non-flammable batteries and their use in products will be commonplace. 

4. when the products with non-flammable batteries are completed, we will issue a product list and distribute it to our supporters and provide them with the products they have chosen.
