SHERIDAN, WYOMING -- July 22, 2026 -- HD Advanced Technologies GmbH (HDAT), a wholly owned subsidiary of Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (HEIDELBERG), has signed a two-part industrial partnership with Swiss battery developer PHENOGY AG. HDAT will take over contract manufacturing of PHENOGY's sodium-ion energy storage systems, covering everything from procurement to installation and maintenance. The two companies are also preparing a joint venture to develop and mass-produce sodium-ion battery cells, combining PHENOGY's cell chemistry with a HEIDELBERG printing process. The goal is a European-based supply chain for battery storage that does not depend on manufacturing capacity outside the region.
