Nuvola is transforming battery manufacturing, making EV batteries…
At Nuvola, we're commercializing SafeCoat, a spray-on separator that is directly deposited onto electrodes, removing the need for conventional separator films and the massive infrastructure to build them. SafeCoat has been piloted with top-tier battery and automotive manufacturers and is ready for commercial deployment. Industry leaders are drawn to its impact: it reduces fire risk by 99%, cuts manufacturing scrap by 70%, and saves $350M per 40GWh factory. Our capital-light model requires just $8M in CAPEX to reach profitability in 2027.
Nuvola Technology offers SafeCoat DDS, a spray-on direct deposition separator for lithium-ion and next-gen batteries, aiming to improve safety and manufacturing efficiency. The platform enables on-site separator coating integrated into existing roll-to-roll lines to reduce fire risk and cut costs associated with traditional separator factories.
SafeCoat DDS (Direct Deposition Separator) is a spray-on battery separator platform that coats porous polymer separator material directly onto electrodes during manufacturing. It integrates into existing roll-to-roll lines, encapsulates thin electrode edges, and is compatible with various cell chemistries and environments. The approach is designed to improve safety (reducing fire risk), boost yield and energy density, and enable scalable, on-site production without building new separator factories. Pilot lines are scalable to 40 GWh/year with minimal additional investment, and the platform supports both evaluation on 5Ah samples and pilot-scale B-samples before larger-scale deployment.
Who it’s for: Battery manufacturers, cell makers, and global EV/energy storage manufacturers evaluating safer, more cost-efficient separator solutions
Hiring/traction mentions (pilot production planning 2026), partnerships with equipment suppliers, engagement with global EV makers and cell manufacturers; pilot lines and scaling roadmap indicate active development and market validation
