About Us

The EV transition depends on lithium-ion batteries, but their end-of-life cannot become an environmental liability. We refused to accept a future where millions of batteries are discarded, valuable materials are lost, and energy goes to waste. Founded in 2021, LICO Materials focuses on closing the loop on battery materials by recovering, reprocessing, and reintegrating critical materials into the battery value chain, supporting a sustainable energy ecosystem. Today, we operate at the crossroads of battery recycling and repurposing from our advanced facility in Bengaluru, Karnataka. We process end-of-life lithium-ion batteries, recover the essential materials that the world's battery supply chain relies on, and give healthy cells a second life through LiGRID, our sustainable battery energy storage system.
