WireFlow has reported a sharp rise in activity across its battery division, confirming 150% year‑on‑year growth in 2025 as demand accelerates for advanced recycling, repurposing and lifecycle‑management technologies.
The Swedish test and measurement specialist says new partnerships, an expanding customer base and entry into additional regions all contributed to the surge. According to Battery Business Unit Manager Mårten Aurelius, “Driven by an increase in customer interest for sophisticated recycling and repurposing solutions, WireFlow’s integrated approach to battery diagnostics and safe deep discharging has proven to be a cornerstone for major OEMs and global lithium-ion battery recycling leaders.”
With the sector preparing for the EU Battery Directive and a broader shift toward circular‑economy models, WireFlow highlights the growing requirement for high‑quality data throughout the battery lifecycle. Its systems are designed to support everything from early R&D to aftermarket processes such as refurbishment, remanufacturing, repurposing and recycling.
VP Strategy and Business Development, Hamed Hooshyar, says the company’s progress reflects its long‑term approach: “Our success over the past year is a direct reflection of our commitment to long-term partnerships… we are providing the tools necessary for our customers to navigate the operational and legislative challenges of the modern battery landscape.”
A key differentiator is the Valand platform, which combines deep‑discharge capability to 0V with State‑of‑Health assessment. Aurelius notes that “This allows recyclers and second-life practitioners to not only prepare batteries for transport… but to also grade and classify them for high-value reuse if they want.”
WireFlow’s modular systems allow customers to scale as needed, while its turnkey solutions—ranging from specialised containers to thermal monitoring and fire detection—support the rapid deployment of safe, industrial‑scale battery processing facilities.
