EightOSix Technology Company Limited
We are the first company in HK that commercialize textile-based flexible batteries. By replacing the metal foils and hard case used in conventional batteries with our developed conductive textiles, our battery electrodes are light in weight, flexible, durable, and have large specific surface areas. Importantly, our textile-based batteries obtained excellent mechanical flexibility and high energy density. They are also stable under deformations and proofed to be penetration and impact safe.
