Big leaps require big
thinkers and big doers.

You will find this culture at Iontra. All of us working with a shared vision to expand the use of batteries in products large and small. We act with urgency, because the faster the world adopts Iontra technology, the faster we all take meaningful steps toward a more sustainable future.

Our beliefs

Make big things happen.

We want to make a transformative change. Instead of incrementally improving the world around us, we are enabling bigger leaps by our customers. This passion is the lifeblood of Iontra and continues to drive significant innovation from our team.

Embrace radical truth.

We only make statements backed by scientific truth, tested in a cauldron of extreme skepticism. Identifying real versus theorized boundaries enables us to question everything and find solutions that get overlooked.

Be respectful, kind, and helpful.

There is nothing more important to us than maintaining a deep respect for people, new ideas, cultures, and the environment at large. We’re all learning every single day. Being humble and extending kindness to others is something that brings us closer and drives greater success!

Act with urgency and integrity.

New ideas and solutions that can benefit a lot of people have an underlying urgency: an urgency to be shared, to be utilized, and to be adopted. We value such urgency without compromising on our inherent scientific approaches.

Respect the environment.

It is our moral obligation to respect, value, and protect our environment for all future generations to come. This mindset of positive environmental impact drives our decisions.
