What Cleantron does

Cleantron is a Dutch specialist manufacturer of lithium-ion battery modules headquartered in Nieuw-Vennep, near Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, producing standardized Basic Modules (24V GX, 48V CLP/CLP XL/P4P/P4X, and High Voltage P4X HV variants) plus custom-tailored battery solutions for OEM customers across mobility, construction and agriculture, and industrial automation. The company's technical core is a captive, in-house developed Battery Management System — including an impedance-based architecture compliant with ISO 26262 — combined with the proprietary MPC (Modular Power Core) architecture that enables parallel-configurable battery systems scalable from 4 to 40 kWh. Production relies on semi-automated assembly with advanced laser welding from Trumpf, full incoming cell testing, and complete charge/discharge cycle testing for every module, with certifications spanning ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and in-progress IATF 16949.

The business model is B2B hardware sales of battery modules plus professional engineering services (concept studies, feasibility assessments, BMS development, mechanical and electrical design, certification support, and driveline integration). Cleantron operates a direct OEM sales motion complemented by distribution partnerships — notably TVH for global off-highway reach — and sells certain Basic Modules and the Circular e-bike battery directly through its website, including a subscription option. Revenue is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; the company is family-owned and private, with no external investment or acquisition activity documented in the source material.

Cleantron's customer base spans adaptive e-bike OEMs (Van Raam, with over 100,000 batteries delivered), luxury and heritage EV converters (Hedley Studios), electric construction equipment manufacturers (Conmeq), education and research programs (TU/ecomotive, TU Delft), and a distribution-led off-highway channel (TVH). The company claims to be the largest Li-ion battery producer in the Benelux region and offers a 4-week average lead time — roughly one-third the typical 12-week lead time for non-EU imports — positioning itself as a localized, supply-chain-resilient alternative to Asian battery imports for European OEMs.
