High Performance Cells & Batteries
Tailor-made solutions - Power, Safety and Reliability
CIPEM develops and supplies customized cells and batteries for the industrial, IoT, medical, security, transport, connected devices and professional equipment sectors.
Primary and Rechargeable Batteries
Single-use batteries (also known as primary batteries) are the same as disposable batteries, which are designed not to be recharged. Common primary battery types include alkaline, carbon zinc, lithium, silver oxide, and zinc-air batteries. Rechargeable batteries (also known as secondary batteries) can be recharged and reused from 500 to 1000 times. Common rechargeable battery types include nickel metal hydride (NiMH), nickel-cadmium (NiCd), lithium-ion (Li-ion), and Lithium polymer batteries.
We offer solutions from 50 mAh to 20,000 mAh, with:
- Rigid or flexible enclosures
- Battery pack with PCM/BMS (protection)
- Custom connectors (Molex, JST, Harwin, etc.)
- Customized wires, sheets, lengths
- Single or multi-cell assembly
Our role: to design the best solution for your use, optimizing performance, safety, service life, and cost.
