American Resources Subsidiary Joins NAATBatt International
American Resources announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Electrified Materials Corporation has joined NAATBatt International, a leading North American trade association focused on the development, commercialization and manufacture of advanced battery technologies. Chris Dreska, CEO of Electrified Materials, commented, "Joining NAATBatt is an important step for EMCO as we continue to expand our battery recycling, pre-processing and conditioning platform. NAATBatt brings together many of the companies and technical leaders shaping the future of advanced battery manufacturing, materials recovery and lifecycle management in North America, which aligns closely with where EMCO is focused. As we build out our ability to safely handle, store, dispose of, process and condition end-of-life, off-warranty and off-spec lithium-ion batteries, our goal is to support responsible material recovery, prepare critical battery feedstocks for downstream separation, purification and refining through our partnership with ReElement Technologies, and help advance a more circular and resilient domestic battery supply chain."
