TIANQIUButton cell manufacturing and export base

TIANQIU (also branded TMMQ) builds button (coin) cells as its core category, alongside cylindrical, lithium-ion and speciality batteries. We are a battery ODM / OEM manufacturer covering R&D, design, production, sales and service, exporting to dozens of countries and supplying several international brands on a private-label basis.

apartmentCompany Profile

From a single button cell in 1994 to a four-category battery operation

By the early 1990s TIANQIU batteries had already built a brand presence in button cells at home and abroad. In 2003 we partnered with Japan’s SOXEY to launch one of China’s first high-grade silver-oxide button cells, and in 2004 we signed with Mitsubishi to become their exclusive agent for mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau. The Dongguan button-cell plant, TIANQIU Industrial Park and the TIANQIU Energy Industrial Park followed, forming today’s manufacturing base.
