In a recent press release, Singapore Company, Flint, announced that it has begun production of lower-carbon, cellulose-based batteries.

The press release states that "Flint, the Singapore-based deep tech company pioneering sustainable, cellulose-based, biodegradable, PFAS-free batteries, today announced that its paper battery technology has entered production, marking the transition from lab-scale development to manufactured cells ready for pilot deployments and customer programs.

With production now live in Singapore, Flint is supplying manufactured battery cells that are rechargeable, non-toxic, and engineered for safer use (non-flammable, non-explosive) for customer pilots and early commercial integrations. The company is bringing two battery products to the market, with full product details and real-world demonstrations scheduled to be revealed at CES 2026."

The press release goes on to state that "Flint's production line is purpose-built around its proprietary cellulose-based battery architecture and uses water-based manufacturing methods designed for safety and scalable output. The facility is designed to reduce reliance on traditional battery materials such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, and lead, while enabling lower-carbon manufacturing and improved end-of-life options under controlled conditions.

To support this transition, Flint has expanded into a new 8,000+ square foot facility that serves as a hub to pilot new processes, scale manufacturing, and continue R&D into next-generation battery architectures as the company expands capacity."
