POSCO Future M, a prominent South Korean manufacturer of battery materials, has announced plans to produce spherical graphite domestically in a significant shift aimed at reducing reliance on Chinese imports. The company will establish a new subsidiary, provisionally named Carbon New Materials Co., to oversee the production process. This strategic move is supported by an investment of around 400 billion won (over $275 million), recently approved by the board, though the final plant location has yet to be confirmed. This initiative marks the first major localization effort in Korea for the production of spherical graphite, which is currently sourced exclusively from China. POSCO Future M aims to integrate this material into its anode production at the Sejong plant, reinforcing control over a key stage in the battery manufacturing chain.
Production equipment, as used in the production of battery anode materials, often requires KCs certification<\/strong><\/a> in order to be approved for import and sale in Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company\u2019s move comes amid heightened concerns over supply security due to potential Chinese export restrictions and geopolitical instability. POSCO Future M\u2019s domestic production strategy not only aims to secure its supply chain but also aligns with efforts to qualify for U.S. Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) incentives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
