Lead-Acid Battery Manufacturing: Key Elements of Quality, Technology, and Sustainability in the Industry
Established in 1992, Mei Mei Battery has grown over two decades to become a globally recognized leader in the research, development, manufacturing, and sales of lead-acid batteries. With an initial investment of $30 million and a facility spanning 60,000 square meters, our commitment to excellence is foundational. In 2006, we expanded our footprint, establishing a second production base in the Changsha National Economic and Technological Development Zone in Hunan Province. Today, we employ over 2,000 experienced professionals and operate a fixed management team. Our monthly production capacity is equivalent to 2.5 million units of 7Ah batteries, serving a diverse clientele across Asia, Europe, and the Americas.
Our mission is unwavering: to provide high-quality lead-acid batteries and services. Specializing in Valve-Regulated Lead-Acid (VRLA) batteries for over 20 years, we have successfully developed and produced AGM, Gel, and Flooded battery types. We believe a superior product relies on consistent quality management from raw materials to finished goods. Our headquarters houses an experienced R&D team dedicated to innovating new products. This, combined with our efficient production teams and a robust, high-execution quality control and assurance system, enables us to manufacture battery products that meet world-class standards.
Mei Mei batteries find applications across a wide spectrum of industries, including Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS), marine equipment, telecommunications, electric vehicles, solar/photovoltaic systems, forklifts, power tools, medical devices, and emergency lighting. We are proud that the world's top five UPS manufacturers rely on our batteries, a testament to our relentless pursuit of quality and service.
**Innovation and Quality at Our Core**
Quality is not an afterthought; it is integrated into every step of our process. We continuously invest in our R&D laboratories, optimizing PP/ABS cell container design, researching battery materials, and enhancing production efficiency through QA/QC automation. Our complete production line and innovative design processes are supported by a high-standard QA/QC system tailored to meet customer demands.
Our R&D department is a core competitive advantage, comprising three dedicated sections: fundamental research, battery design, and support & testing. Our engineers possess the expertise to design robust and durable lead-acid batteries. With two dedicated laboratories at our headquarters—one for fundamental research and another for battery testing—every product is meticulously designed and validated by our R&D team before reaching our customers.
Manufacturing excellence is another critical pillar of our quality. Our B.B series batteries incorporate numerous technical features. To achieve comprehensive quality control, we implement a series of stringent QA inspection standards and procedures. This "A to Z" quality monitoring system, coupled with our in-house production of key components like lead alloys, molds, parts, and cell containers, allows us to maintain strict control and has earned us an exceptional reputation in the industry. We invest in advanced R&D, inspection, and production equipment, constantly improve our processes and automation, maintain complete data records for traceability, and foster a comfortable working environment for our employees. A mature, meticulous, and experienced management team drives our ceaseless pursuit of high quality.
Our commitment is further validated by prestigious certifications. Mei Mei Battery is certified under ISO9001, ISO14001, and OHSMS18001 management systems. Our products carry UL and CE marks and have obtained additional certifications like VdS, NEBS, TLC, and TSE for specific application fields.
**A Diverse and Reliable Product Portfolio**
Our product range is designed to meet varied customer needs. We offer advanced VRLA-AGM batteries and Gel batteries.
For VRLA-AGM batteries, our core technology utilizes oxygen recombination, allowing for maintenance-free operation. We have developed multiple series to serve different markets:
* **BP Series:** The first member of our AGM family, designed for general purposes with reliable performance in various applications.
* **EP, EB, EVP Series:** Engineered for the electric bicycle/motorcycle market, offering excellent cycle life for applications like wheelchairs, power tools, and golf carts.
* **HR & SHR Series:** Developed to meet the high-rate and super high-rate discharge demands of the UPS market, offering outstanding performance and value.
* **BPL & MPL Series:** Feature superior float charge performance at room temperature (25°C), ideal for telecommunications, marine, and solar applications requiring long service life.
* **FTB, MSB, MSU Series:** Target the telecommunications industry's need for high-power discharge and float charge use, with a float service life exceeding ten years.
Our **Zelus Series Gel Batteries** represent the pinnacle of our gel technology. Using a silica gel electrolyte, these batteries effectively prevent electrolyte evaporation and leakage. They offer superior performance under extreme temperatures, vibration, and shock. The calcium-based grid composition enhances mechanical strength while minimizing gas generation during operation.
For industrial motive power needs, our **Spur-B.B Series Traction Batteries** deliver exceptional reliability and deep-cycle life. Used in material handling equipment, road vehicles, and other electric vehicles, they feature robust construction with Pb-Sb alloy positive plates, automatic watering systems, and electrolyte circulation to prevent stratification.
**Our Commitment to Sustainability and Social Responsibility**
We recognize our responsibility extends beyond our factory walls. We are deeply committed to environmental protection. Our facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art wastewater treatment and recycling systems, air purification and dust collection systems (including dedicated acid mist filters and employee de-dusting rooms), and solid waste management protocols handled by government environmental departments. We continuously improve our environmental solutions and hold ISO14001 certification. We also encourage battery recycling and welcome inquiries for end-of-life battery returns.
As a global corporate citizen, Mei Mei Battery actively engages in social welfare. We support underprivileged children in remote areas through infrastructure projects, library construction, and material donations across Taiwan, China, and other regions. Our initiatives include the "Ray of Hope" program, winter relief, and the Mei Mei Battery Scholarship. We have also partnered with international humanitarian organizations like Doctors Without Borders (MSF) and Orbis, participating in fundraising and awareness campaigns to support their vital medical and vision care missions worldwide.
**Support and Warranty**
We stand firmly behind our products. Our support includes comprehensive technical assistance and after-sales service, drawing from our extensive project experience to collaborate effectively with clients. Customer satisfaction remains our ultimate goal.
Our Limited Quality Warranty for B.B series batteries covers defects in materials and workmanship for 12 months from the date of shipment. Warranty terms specify conditions related to capacity retention, operating temperature, and proper usage as per our instructions. We are committed to repairing or replacing defective batteries within this period, subject to our policy terms and conditions.
Driven by our motto—"We pursue not just survival, but constant self-transcendence"—Mei Mei Battery remains dedicated to innovation, quality, and sustainable growth. We thank our customers for their continued support and partnership as we strive to power a rapidly developing world with reliable energy solutions.
