The lead-acid business
The lead-acid business is a vertically integrated business model with operating production and recycling facilities in Bulgaria (Monbat AD and Start AD) and recycling plants in Romania, Serbia and Italy. This structure insulates the group from raw material price volatility and enables it to achieve higher operating margins compared to peers.
The lithium-Ion business
The lithium-Ion business under the brand EAS Batteries, based in Germany, is a new market presence in the high-power battery systems’ solutions, based on safe and proven LFP cell chemistry. This technology can address many niche high power applications and meet the very high requirements for reliability and safety, which many applications demand in areas such as aerospace, defence, marine and public transportation.
Recycled industrial materials

Enabling very efficient vertical integration in the lead-acid business segment, the Recycling has turned into an innovative provider of Lead and Lead Alloys as well as Regranulated Polypropylene. The division has facilities in Bulgaria, Serbia, Romania and Italy with total capacity amounting to 158 000 tonnes of used lead-acid batteries per annum.
