Any equipment used in the front line of surgical or medical applications must meet the stringent requirements and industry standards of this demanding sector.

Transporting lithium metal and lithium ion batteries means adhering to international regulations. These cover stringent testing, package and storage requirements to ensure the safe containment and carriage of all lithium-ion cells and batteries.

Steatite has extensive experience of manufacturing custom battery packs and we’ve just added extra capability to our remit.

Since the Industrial Revolution, humans have relied more and more on innovations in the Energy sector to keep up with their insatiable demand for power. In this insight, we take a look at some of the developments around powering industry, and keeping maintenance costs and downtime low. From renewable wind power to alternative uses for fossil fuels, the technology driving the Energy sector is hugely diverse.

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) rechargeable (secondary) cells are often seen to be advantageous over Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH), also a rechargeable cell type. Steatite works with both, but what do the different chemistries offer in reality? We’ve taken a look into the pros and cons of both in this insight, Nickel Metal Hydride vs Lithium-ion Cells.

Lithium rechargeable batteries are made from lithium-ion (li-ion) cells, the core component of the battery. The size and makeup of the battery is determined by the equipment it powers; a mobile phone will use a small single cell, an electric vehicle will use thousands of cells.

Many applications require a custom battery pack to power them, but what are the advantages of this over a more conventional pack?

Custom battery pack design is an essential element of the battery development process. Each and every battery pack that we produce starts with meticulous design. It is this attention to detail that ensures the finished pack will be of the utmost quality and perform exactly as required.

As a leading lithium-ion battery pack manufacturer, Steatite is relied on to provide highly reliable, premium quality battery packs to a diverse range of businesses, across numerous markets, to power critical applications.

As one of the UK’s largest businesses dedicated to custom battery pack assembly, Steatite is trusted by companies around the world to provide the power for critical applications where failure is simply not an option.
