Attero specializes in proprietary closed-loop recycling technology for all types of end-of-life lithium-ion batteries, including NMC, LCO, LMO, LTO, and LFP chemistries. Since 2019 with commercial operations starting in 2021, the company achieves high extraction efficiencies over 98%, recovering battery-grade materials with purities up to 99.9%. Recovered materials include cobalt, lithium carbonate, nickel, copper, aluminum, graphite, and titanium for LTO batteries. The zero-emission, water-free, energy-efficient process can customize outputs such as cobalt metal or sulfate, lithium carbonate or hydroxide, backed by a global patent portfolio.
Not explicitly detailed in the provided content, but Attero processes all types of lithium-ion batteries from varied applications, producing high purity recovered materials for reuse as battery-grade inputs and other industrial uses.
Notable projects include a 2025 MoU with India’s National Institute of Solar Energy for solar panel recycling technology development, supplying high-purity recycled metals for the 38th National Games in Uttarakhand under the ‘Green Games’ initiative, and partnerships with Omega Seiki Mobility for EV battery recycling across India, ASEAN, and Africa. Collaborations with Mahindra Last Mile Mobility ensure responsible recycling of lithium-ion batteries from electric 3-wheelers. Attero operates India’s only facility handling all end-of-life lithium battery chemistries, with international presence in six countries and certifications including ISO 14064.
Attero has raised approximately ₹2.0B as of 2025. The Series C round was led by NEA-Indo US Venture, DFJ Mauritius, and GHIOF. Other investors include Kalaari Capital, New Enterprise Associates, Forum Synergies, Draper Fisher Jurveston, and Granite Hill Capital. In 2023, Ardian Infrastructure acquired Attero’s Netherlands operations, enabling Attero to focus on its core e-waste and lithium-ion battery recycling business.
