Batteries - mobile energy sources continuously expanding into
new areas - are the focus of almost all Varta activity. Their
reputation as "The Battery Experts" was not earned
overnight. For over a century, Varta has been manufacturing and
marketing batteries in a great variety of electrochemical systems
for all kinds of applications.
With 28 production sites in 15 countries Varta has a global
presence, with approximately 12,000 employees producing sales of
some DM 2 billion in 1996.
Their product program ranges from small batteries for hearing
aids to large accumulators for commercial vehicles. On the one
hand, they produce rechargeable and nonrechargeable consumer
batteries, including rechargers for varied applications. On the
other hand, their automotive batteries move nearly all types of
vehicles or provide mobile current en route.
Regardless of the application: dedication to quality and
innovative thinking are their trademarks -- and customer
satisfaction is the way they measure success.
