As a family-owned company, our mission is to help make lives better, one battery at a time. We are proud to have a significant impact by operating the largest single-site battery manufacturing facility in the world.

…And we’ve only just begun.

It starts with family

In 1946, we started out as a family-owned company and that hasn’t changed since. And there’s something special about being run by a family that makes you feel like you’re a part of their family. It’s even more special to know that this work family is comprised of over ten thousand people.

ABOUT THE FAMILY

Empowered by employees

Since day one, this family of employees has been at the heart of what makes our company special. A father and his son may have started this dream, but it took a powerful force of amazing individuals to make it a reality.

In the Community

The people of East Penn are deeply committed to engaging with our neighbors and working to address important community needs. We work together to participate in and support organizations and causes that build a stronger community.

We’re a Good Neighbor

As a company, we got our start by rebuilding used batteries from recycled materials. Our business model has been highly focused on recyclability and the conservation of natural resources ever since. Our main manufacturing and recycling site is surrounded by the lush, fertile farmland that many of us call home, so we’re completely committed to protecting our neighborhoods and communities.

That’s the East Penn way.

Committed to Making Products Sustainably

Today’s world is experiencing one of history’s greatest energy challenges. Our batteries play a critical role in meeting present and future needs, including the critical energy required to help optimize renewable resources, the electrical grid, and reducing the carbon emissions from vehicles. We make over 515 battery types for virtually every major application with sustainability in mind. And our manufacturing sites are designed to conserve natural resources like water, and to minimize our carbon footprint.
