IBU-tec presents its battery materials product portfolio at the Battery Shows in Detroit (USA) and Greater Noida (India)
Trade show presence strengthens visibility in the international battery and automotive industries
Numerous contacts with potential customers also beyond the trade shows
WEIMAR, GERMANY - October 27, 2026 - IBU-tec advanced materials AG (“IBU-tec,” ISIN: DE000A0XYHT5) is expanding its international presence in the battery sector. At the world’s most important Battery Shows in the USA and India, IBU-tec was represented with its own booth.
At the German Pavilion of the Battery Show in Detroit, USA, in mid-October, IBU-tec held promising discussions with potential customers. The Democratic Governor of Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer, visited IBU-tec at its booth and, in discussions with IBU-tec, emphasized the high relevance of a secure value chain for battery material production in North America. With its many years of process know-how and its outstanding technology platform, IBU-tec is strongly positioned, and also meets all regulatory requirements for battery material production in the USA.
At the German Pavilion of the Battery Show in Greater Noida, India, IBU-tec likewise held technical discussions with numerous trade show visitors over a total of three days and presented its extensive battery product portfolio. In this way, IBU-tec was able to provide potential new international partners with well-founded insights into its development projects, products, and service offerings in both the anode and cathode segments. In addition to the focus on LFP battery material, activities also centered on various discussions and meetings outside the trade show in order to further expand IBU-tec’s own raw material sources.
The presence on the growing sales markets of India and the USA corresponds to IBU-tec’s internationalization strategy and reinforces the company’s strong global positioning as a European supplier in the battery ecosystem. At the same time, it confirms IBU-tec’s growing international visibility.
The Battery Shows in the USA and India are the leading events for the global battery industry and, in addition to international battery corporations, also address large OEMs and various service providers in the battery sector. This year, global players such as Siemens, Stellantis, and LG, among others, took part in the events. In total, more than 34,000 participants attended the shows in India and the USA.
Ulrich Weitz, CPO of IBU-tec: “Through our trips to India and the USA, we were able to deepen existing collaborations and initiate new partnerships. With this, we are taking our international activities to the next level and reinforcing our claim to be a global battery company.”
About IBU-tec
The IBU-tec Group develops and produces innovative materials of the highest quality for industry. It combines unique, partly patent-protected thermal process technology with the process and material know-how of around 230 highly qualified employees. The company's own products include LFP battery material, which is an important component of batteries for electromobility and stationary energy storage, as well as solutions for air purification, resource conservation or the reduction of plastic packaging. IBU-tec is thus positioned for the long term in global megatrends - especially climate and environmental protection - and has an international customer base ranging from innovative medium-sized companies to global corporations.

The New 48-channel LED Controller E522.96 Opens up New Possibilities for Lighting Design and Safety With More Than 500 Individually Controllable OLED Pixels
LEVERKUSEN, GERMANY - October 27, 2026 - The rear light becomes a high-resolution light surface: With Elmos’ new E522.96 LED controller, OLED applications featuring several hundred individually controlled pixels can be implemented. The new Elmos controller has been selected for initial applications by a well-known German premium OEM.
Elmos intends to place even greater emphasis on the exterior lighting sector in the future, as vehicle exterior lighting is increasingly becoming a distinctive design element with dynamic lighting functions for communication and safety. The E522.96 controls up to 48 channels - three times as many as previous Elmos LED controllers for exterior lighting. This allows complex lighting functions to be implemented with fewer components. Across both rear lights of a vehicle, more than 500 light points can be individually controlled and combined into unique and dynamic lighting designs with great creative freedom. The E522.96 is available in CAN-FD and UART versions for different vehicle architectures, allowing the communication interface to be selected to suit the specific application.
Pixel-based OLED rear lights open up new possibilities for dynamic lighting animations. At the same time, the demands for precise and reliable control of each individual light point are increasing. The design wins with a German premium OEM underline the growing importance of high-resolution lighting solutions around the vehicle.
Elmos is also continuously expanding its product portfolio for future vehicle architectures: Smart Edge Gateway ICs can enable communication between LED controllers via Ethernet based on 10BASE-T1S - for lighting applications on and inside the vehicle. The 16-channel E522.95 controller complements the product lineup for brake and turn signal functions.
“Modern exterior lighting combines complex electronics with an immediate impact on design, brand recognition, and safety. Our innovative LED controllers give OEMs new freedom to create dynamic lighting signatures and intelligent lighting functions,” explains Dr. Jan Dienstuhl, Chief Sales Officer of Elmos Semiconductor SE.
“The first design wins with the new E522.96 confirm our innovative technology and give Elmos access to sophisticated OLED lighting applications. We intend to develop this attractive growth area even more systematically in the future,” Dr. Dienstuhl continues.
Elmos will showcase an OLED demonstrator using the E522.96 at electronica 2026 in Munich. It demonstrates how hundreds of individually controlled pixels create a precise and dynamic lighting experience.
