New NorthStar/Artheon Battery Plant Sets High Environmental Standards in India
The new plant will be operated by Artheon Battery Company, a joint venture between NorthStar and Artheon Energy Group. The joint venture combines the industry-leading manufacturing and technology of NorthStar, with the distribution and service capabilities of Artheon.
NorthStar has been committed to reducing the environmental impact of its products since the company was founded in 2000. NorthStar's state-of-the-art facilities in the US are built and run to meet the toughest possible environmental requirements, to prevent lead poisoning of the surrounding air, ground and water. All NorthStar products have a longer lifespan and are highly recyclable, which dramatically reduces waste.
Production has already started on a range of 2V, 6V and 12V batteries. The 9,000 sq m (97,000 sq ft) plant has a production capacity of 2.5 million batteries per year, and full productivity will be needed to meet demand in India and nearby markets. Revenue for the first year alone is estimated to be US$20m.
