VARTA Batteries invites you to fit the same premium quality batteries as Europe’s leading car makers

When it comes to automotive quality and excellence, Europe’s car manufacturers are renowned for setting the highest global benchmarks.
VARTA says the fact that seven out of every ten new European vehicles are fitted with VARTA automotive batteries as Original Equipment (OE) provides the ultimate vote of confidence in the global brand’s leading battery technologies and long-term reliability for passenger cars and commercial vehicles.
By selecting VARTA automotive batteries, VARTA says Australian automotive repairers and service centres can confidently supply and fit the highest quality replacement automotive batteries that have been designed specifically to meet the power demands of all European vehicles driven on our roads.
This is an important point as the demands placed on automotive batteries by modern European vehicles’ Stop / Start systems, ancillary system power demands, ADAS and security systems along with coping with climate extremes, require batteries that feature special technologies and advanced charging capabilities.
To make it easier for automotive repairers and service centres to select the right VARTA automotive battery replacement solution for their customers’ cars, VARTA provides three tiers of colour coded premium quality automotive batteries, VARTA AGM Gold, VARTA EFB Silver and VARTA SLI Blue.
The VARTA Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) Gold label battery is best suited to high demand European vehicle applications that feature advanced Stop / Start systems, commercial vehicle hotelling demands (providing consistent ancillary equipment power during rest periods) and for several BEV models that require a number of high performance 12 Volt batteries to ensure vehicle security and reliable ancillary system operations.
This range includes the VARTA Promotive AGM battery, which was specifically designed in close collaboration with Europe’s leading commercial vehicle manufacturers to provide the perfect OE fitted and aftermarket available battery to meet heavy duty commercial vehicle electrical power demands.
Along with all of the usual power draw requirements, the VARTA Promotive AGM battery reportedly excels for cold crank starting, enhanced cycling performance through deep discharge capabilities along with high robustness and vibration resistance for end of frame installations.
The VARTA Enhanced Flooded Battery (EFB) Silver label variant suits vehicles with Start / Stop systems along with heavy commercial vehicle hotelling requirements, combined with enhanced durability along with being suitable for end of frame installation.
The VARTA Starting Lighting and Ignition (SLI) Blue label battery has been designed to deliver a high current over short periods, prioritising reliable start up power, making them ideal for conventional vehicles being driven on Australia’s roads.
While VARTA automotive batteries are best known for their European vehicle OE applications, the company says there is a VARTA battery to suit all makes and models in the Australian carpark, including light commercial and heavy-duty vehicles, featuring a distinct and exclusive advantage – PowerFrame Grid Technology.
VARTA says PowerFrame Grid Technology represents the next generation of vehicle battery technology.
The innovative design of each VARTA battery’s PowerFrame positive grid is stronger and longer lasting than existing battery grid construction, delivering optimum performance and long wearing durability.
This exclusive VARTA technological advantage is designed to minimise the corrosion that leads to battery failure caused by the many charge and discharge cycles in each battery’s lifetime.
VARTA’s PowerFrame patented grid technology is said to be up to 66 percent more durable, corrosion and fracture resistant than traditional battery grid designs.
As the positive grid of a vehicle battery supplies the energy to start an engine, VARTA explains the PowerFrame grid design improves the performance of your vehicle’s electrical system by providing superior starting performance with up to 70 percent better electrical flow than other grid technologies.
Regular battery checking with each service ensures that your customers are far less likely to experience battery failure when on the road, particularly during the winter months when automotive batteries can be more susceptible.
Regular battery testing and top-up charging when a vehicle is presented for servicing also enhances and preserves a long and reliable vehicle battery life cycle.
VARTA automotive batteries are manufactured by USA based Clarios, a global leader in advanced energy storage solutions.
The company has more than 50 manufacturing plants worldwide operated by over 18,000 employees.
Alongside the company’s commitment to automotive battery design and manufacturing excellence, Clarios’ efforts towards sustainability have seen it recognised over the past three years by Ethisphere as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies.
This makes Clarios and its world leading VARTA automotive battery brand one of just seven companies in the global automotive industry to have received this prestigious award.
This accolade makes excellent sense too, considering that no less than 99 percent of the materials used in all VARTA automotive battery production can be recycled.
VARTA automotive batteries are distributed across Australia exclusively by JAS Oceania, one of the country’s most experienced auto electrical parts distributors, a specialist division of Australasia’s largest automotive aftermarket company, BAPCOR.
