About us
Volkswagen’s in-house battery factory PowerCo and circular materials technology company Umicore unite their know-how in IONWAY. As a dedicated battery materials producer, it’s our mission to make e-mobility affordable and accessible to all. Together, we make the energy transition happen. Bringing sustainable e-mobility to every doorstep, that’s what drives us all at IONWAY. As PowerCo and Umicore join forces in this new and dynamic enterprise, it’s safe to say we are taking pole position in the large-scale production of cathode and precursor materials. We are ready to accelerate the energy transition. WE TAKE ACTION We feel the sense of urgency. Strengthened by Umicore’s track record and PowerCo’s magnitude, we eagerly get to work with a fresh approach to efficient EV battery production. Today, together, we answer the challenge. WE TAKE THE LEAD We see both obstacles and opportunities. Although we are a start-up, we are far from new to this fast-evolving business. We unite the expertise, resources and technology to move ahead and make sustainability a success. WE TAKE RESPONSIBILITY We know the situation is serious. As entrepreneurs, however, we connect with others to share our enthusiasm. In our continuous pursuit to improve, we make a positive impact and pave the way for the next generations.

💡 Sustainability Spotlight: Energy Efficiency On this #SustainabilitySpotlight, we fill you in on our internal practices to promote energy efficiency. Here’s how we’re making a difference: 🔌 Switching off to save: We make it a habit to turn off lights when leaving a room, reducing unnecessary energy use. 🖤 Efficient by design: Our black branding isn’t just stylish—it also uses less energy on digital screens. 💻 Smart tech choices: Devices are set to energy-saving modes, and unused equipment is powered down after hours. ⚡ Green energy for the future: Our upcoming factory will run on green energy for a carbon-neutral production. Every small step matters when it comes to reducing our carbon footprint. By embracing energy efficiency in the details, we’re playing our part in combating climate change and driving sustainability forward. What are your go-to energy-saving habits? Let’s share ideas for a brighter, greener future. 🌱

In the past weeks, our management teams in Brussels and Nysa attended an impactful team training focused on the Lean methodology. This training was aimed at helping us grow stronger, smarter, and more efficient as a team. These sessions were opportunities to align with our core values of operational excellence and collaboration. Here’s a sneak peak at what we learned: 🗑️ Identifying Waste: We deepened our understanding of how to identify inefficiencies in workflows, ensuring we focus our energy on what adds the most value. 📈 The Power of Kaizen: Small, incremental changes can lead to massive improvements over time—an approach we’re excited to embed in our daily work. 🤝 Team Collaboration: Lean principles remind us that the best solutions come from collective insights and teamwork. This inspired us to enhance cross-team collaboration to solve challenges more effectively. 🎉 A big thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to making these trainings successful! Let’s apply what we’ve learned and continue pushing for excellence together ⚡
