"New" Ingersoll Rand Celebrates its 3rd Anniversary with Remarkable Achievements in Business Development and Sustainability

      In March 2023, the new Ingersoll Rand (hereinafter referred to as "Ingersoll Rand"), a company created through the merger of then Gardner Denver and Ingersoll Rand Industries, will celebrate its third anniversary. Ingersoll Rand Inc. (NYSE:IR) is a global provider of mission-critical flow creation and industrial solutions, with the business covering air compressors, pumps, blowers and power tools, as well as fluid management and material lifting systems among other products. Over the past three years, Ingersoll Rand has been steadily developing the business and market layout, creating value for customers as guided by the concept of sustainable development.

Expanding Brand Matrix and Business Capabilities

In the past three years, Ingersoll Rand acquired more than 20 companies or businesses that are highly related or complementary to its own business. With recent acquisitions including SPX FLOW's Air Treatment Business, Seepex, Hydro Prokav and Hanye, Ingersoll Rand continues to accelerate its growth and deliver on its commitment to advance digitalization capabilities, aftermarket growth and complementary technology and innovation efforts.

As a leading manufacturer of reliable and energy efficient compressed air dryer and filtration equipment that helps increase production and process reliability, SPX FLOW's Air Treatment Business, owner of renowned brands like Hankison and Jemaco, continues Ingersoll Rand's strategy of expanding product offerings in the broader compressor ecosystem.

Seepex is a world-leading manufacturer of progressive cavity pumps, a segment of positive displacement pumps that primarily serve the water, wastewater, food and beverage, and chemical end markets. The additions of Holtec, Hanye and Hydro Prokav advance Ingersoll Rand's inorganic growth strategy and demonstrate its commitment to disciplined inorganic growth in adjacent products and geographies. The acquisitions will expand the company's air treatment capabilities and enhance its progressive cavity pump market penetration.

Adhering to Sustainable Development for an All-win Situation

While expanding its business, Ingersoll Rand formulates and implements its sustainable development goals and strategic planning, promising to reduce greenhouse gas emissions generated during production and operation by 60% by 2030 and become carbon neutral by 2050. These goals are also an important part of Ingersoll Rand's ESG strategy.

The concept of sustainable development runs through Ingersoll Rand's operations and customer value globally. Ingersoll Rand's first factory using renewable energy is the Wujiang Factory in Suzhou, China. The facility's 75,000 m² roof was converted into a solar power system to provide power for production. From 2020 to late 2022, Ingersoll Rand has successfully completed eleven solar installation projects including the newest completed solar project in the Schopfheim plant in Germany. As a result, the plants' environmental impact has been significantly reduced, while the operating costs are decreasing year by year.

Ingersoll Rand is widely recognized for its sustainable development practices and performance. In 2022, Ingersoll Rand was named to the Sustainability Yearbook 2022, S&P Global's annual and comprehensive listing, ranking within the top 15% of its industry category, Machinery and Electrical Equipment, and was distinguished as an "Industry Mover". In the American Business Awards 2022, Ingersoll Rand won three Stevie Awards for its growth achievements.

Since 2020, Ingersoll Rand's business has been growing faster than the market average thanks to Ingersoll Rand Execution Excellence (IRX), the execution engine based on simple processes that drive a high-performance culture while instilling Ingersoll Rand's values and allowing execution of the strategic areas of focus in self-directed work teams.

Adhering to the company purpose of "Lean on us to make life better" and upholding the sense of ownership, Ingersoll Rand, with full confidence and a pragmatic and humble attitude, will continue to grow in the ever-changing and upgrading market environment.

Celgard and C4V Begin Exclusive Strategic Alliance Agreement for High-Voltage Lithium-ion Batteries for Giga-factories

      Celgard, LLC (Celgard), a subsidiary of Polypore International, LP, (Polypore) is pleased to announce it has entered into a strategic alliance agreement with lithium-ion battery technology company C4V to advance the development of next-generation, high-performance, high-voltage battery cells.

Celgard and C4V will collaborate on the development of separator solutions for the lithium-ion battery market optimized for C4V's high-voltage bio-mineralized lithium mixed metal phosphate (BM-LMP) cathode material. This collaboration is part of C4V's Supply Chain Partners program, whereby key needs of the battery industry are targeted, and solutions are brought to market. Celgard(R) membrane separators developed under the alliance are expected to gain access to all C4V's member giga-factories. Celgard's innovative separator could supply a cell manufacturing base with over 150 GWh of cell production planned for 2030. These cell production sites are located in the USA, India and Australia, with additional facilities under development elsewhere. Celgard is already a certified member of C4V's Supply Chain Partners program with a current generation of Celgard(R) separator.   

Stefan Reinartz, Celgard's vice president of lithium-ion electric drive vehicle (EDV) and energy storage systems (ESS) business, said: "We are pleased to partner with the technology leader C4V to advance Celgard(R) dry-process battery separators and develop innovative solutions for BM-LMP battery cells with them. C4V has proven they can bring high-precision battery manufacturing online quickly. Our alliance will pave a path to innovations that will bring affordable, high-energy output cells to people who need them urgently."

Polypore's parent company, Asahi Kasei, may also support C4V's cell manufacturing franchise, which utilizes the same technology and suppliers assuring OEMs a robust source of cells and batteries less affected by environmental or regional disruption. Asahi Kasei sees an opportunity to leverage its diversified international manufacturing base to support the global BM-LMP supply chain needs for plastics and thermal retardant materials.

BM-LMP cell production from the premier C4V cell manufacturing franchise started in August 2022. The three existing franchises are expected to further expand to a total of 10 giga-factories by 2030. BM-LMP high-voltage battery cells achieve long cycle life and rapid charging without the use of cobalt or nickel, which diminishes the risk posed by thermal runaway and uncertainties in raw material supplies of these elements.

About Celgard and Polypore
Celgard specializes in solvent-free, coated and uncoated, dry-process microporous membranes used as separators that are a major component of lithium-ion batteries. Celgard's battery separator technology is important to the performance of lithium-ion batteries for electric drive vehicles, energy storage systems and other applications.

Celgard, LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Polypore International, LP, an Asahi Kasei Company.

Polypore is a global company with facilities in nine countries specializing in microporous membranes used in electric and nonelectric vehicles, energy storage systems and specialty applications. Visit www.celgard.com and www.polypore.com.

About C4V
C4V is a Lithium-ion battery technology company with critical expertise in battery performance optimization and end-to-end giga-factory design. C4V's discoveries have significantly extended battery life and charge performance, and their giga-factory design empowers emerging economies to rapidly develop robust domestic manufacturing ecosystems.

Carbon Intensive Industries Call for Financing to Support Decarbonization

 

• Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week and Masdar-produced report finds decarbonization budgets are significant source of concern, with less than a third of executives believing their funds are adequate
• 60 percent of organizations taking steps to reduce emissions but have not yet set net-zero targets, with reliable financing the main barrier to accelerating commitments
• Half of industry executives now believe net zero is more feasible than previously but call on governments to boost support

Executives from 'hard-to-abate' industries have called for increased financing to support decarbonization efforts, following the release of a landmark report that outlines less than a third believe they have adequate budgets to do so, and over half have not yet set net-zero targets.

Reducing emissions in the hard-to-abate industries - cement, steel, aluminum, petrochemicals, shipping, aviation, heavy industry, and manufacturing - is vital in the effort to combat climate change, with industry and transport accounting for almost half of global emissions.

The findings from 'Hard to Abate, Ready to Start', published today by Masdar, the host of Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW), in partnership with FT Longitude, furthers the discussion on decarbonization by identifying the biggest hurdles, and what is needed to drive greater action in the lead up to the 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28) in the UAE.

Although challenging, the report finds that half of senior industry leaders are more confident that net zero in their business is more achievable today compared to a few years ago.

HE Dr Sultan Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, COP28 President-Designate, and Chairman of Masdar, said "COP28 will see the conclusion of the Global Stocktake, offering a review of progress against the Paris Agreement. We know that the results will show a significant gap in where we are and where we need to be. The UAE is committed to addressing this, to reigniting momentum and to bringing the goal of 1.5 within reach. Addressing carbon emissions in hard-to-abate sectors is a priority in that regard. There is simply no path to net-zero that does not include decarbonizing these essential industries."

Despite the optimism that exists across the industry, and the emergence of innovative new technologies to capture and store carbon, reliable finance remains a major barrier for accelerating progress for many senior executives. Despite strong progress across the sector over the past decade, 60 percent of organizations surveyed across Europe, Asia-

Pacific, the Middle East, and North America have still not set decarbonization targets, and leaders from those organizations cite a lack of reliable finance as the main barrier for committing to targets. 83 percent and 62 percent of senior executives from the Middle East and Asia-Pacific respectively highlighted that they are taking steps to reduce emissions but have not set a target date for completion. Further, only 30 percent of senior executives overall, indicated their budgets will be able to meet decarbonization needs, and more than 50 percent are concerned about the impact of global economic headwinds on decarbonization investment.

Ahead of COP28, the UAE Presidency has made clear that access to finance and capital will be a priority, noting that both governments and private sector partners require the resources needed to commit to transformative action. This includes investing in the breakthrough technologies and innovations needed to drive ambition, such as carbon capture and storage, and other forms of decarbonization.

In addition to financing hurdles, the report also highlights the disparity in available technologies to accelerate decarbonization. Despite the progress made in recent years, the research outlines the gap in "frontier" technologies available at a commercial scale, delaying energy-intensive industries in ramping up decarbonization efforts.

Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, Chief Executive Officer of Masdar, said "Building on important momentum gained during ADSW 2023, this report is a vital tool to drive forward decarbonization in hard-to-abate industries. Masdar, a global clean energy powerhouse, will continue to play a leading role by fostering global collaboration amongst governments and private sector partners. We intend to seize the opportunity of utility-scale renewable energy and focus our investments in frontier technologies like sustainable aviation fuel and green hydrogen to help accelerate global progress ahead of COP28 and beyond."

As well as calling for greater industry collaboration, the report highlights the importance of increased public sector support and calls upon global governments to deliver innovative incentives across funding, legislation, and taxation to support national net-zero targets. As highlighted in the report, only 24 percent of senior executives expect to receive funding from government funds or incentives and 41 percent believe that without greater incentives and funding they will be unable to meet their domestic market's net-zero targets.

Publication of today's report comes ahead of the UAE's preparations to host COP28 later this year. This global event will act as a major milestone in progressing conversations and inclusive solutions across all sectors, including those hard-to-abate industries. In convening key players from this sector, COP28 will aim to accelerate climate action and deliver concrete outcomes and solutions for climate change.

In his role as COP President-Designate, Dr Al Jaber has emphasized the need to address gaps by bringing public and private partners together in a "COP of Action, and a COP for All". The UAE is firmly committed to an inclusive approach to climate action that includes industry leaders, civil society, academics, women, youth, and indigenous peoples. 

In addition to COP28, 'Hard to Abate, Ready to Start' will help frame discussions at the upcoming International Energy Week in London and S&P CERA Week in Houston, Texas.

Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW) is a global initiative championed by the UAE and its clean energy powerhouse Masdar, to accelerate sustainable development and advance economic, social, and environmental progress. Established in 2008, ADSW provides a global platform for all who have a stake in the future of our planet. ADSW brings together leaders from across governments, the private sector and civil society, to discuss and engage on bold climate action and the innovations that will ensure a sustainable world for future generations.
