By streamlining the testing, discharging and classification of batteries ahead of refurbishment, reuse or recycling, Bifrost helps enable the goals and processes promoted by the EU’s Battery Regulation.

Bifrost handles multiple test stations in parallel and can process batteries at different stages of their lifecycle simultaneously. The platform identifies battery condition, qualifies it for reuse, or prepares it for safe discharge prior to recycling where energy is efficiently recovered during the process.

All monitoring and oversight are centralized througt our Single Point of Control concept, providing full control, high safety and operational efficiency.

A battery solution developed for real-world industry needs

The Bifrost platform has been developed in close collaboration with industry partners and is currently used in several critical phases of the battery lifecycle:

Aftermarket & Refurbishment

Remanufacturing & Repurposing

Recycling

Compared to other available products in the market, our modular series provides you with all you need to shift seamlessly from simple to advanced test and measurements with the possibility of a high degree of customization.
