Welder-Fitter Class 5

ENTEK is synonymous with some of the world’s best lead-acid separators, lithium-ion separators, extruders, and engineering services for the battery and extrusion markets. We operate on six continents; astronomical growth for the simple lead-acid battery separator company founded by James Young and Pete Johnson in Lebanon, OR in 1984.

Our intimate knowledge of both the design and manufacturing of separators spurred the introduction of our high-speed co-rotating twin-screw E-Max extruder in 1998—recognized as the fastest to install and easiest to operate extruder on the market.

In 2001, our first lithium-ion battery separator line expanded our reach in Asian markets, delivering a quality product at a market-leading price. Our success here is fueled by consistently living our core values of respect, integrity, commitment, and innovation.

From state-of-the-art separators and extruders, to 360° engineering and support, ENTEK’s commitment to non-stop innovation and customer service keeps production lines humming. We are dedicated to ensuring that a world at work has what it needs to stay at work, 24-7.
