VARTA Alkaline Extra AAA batteries

VARTA is a long-standing German brand with a history dating back to 1887, when Adolph Müller founded the company Büsche & Müller. Over more than a century, VARTA has become synonymous with high-quality energy storage solutions. As indicated on the packaging, these specific Alkaline Extra batteries are proudly manufactured in Germany, maintaining the brand's association with German engineering and production standards.

Ownership of the VARTA brand is complex due to historical splits. The consumer battery division seen in the image is owned by VARTA AG, which is headquartered in Ellwangen, Germany. While the brand was previously under the control of global conglomerates like Spectrum Brands, the consumer battery business was reacquired by VARTA AG in early 2020. This move brought the brand's primary consumer battery operations back under German ownership, though the automotive battery portion remains a separate entity owned by Clarios. Today, VARTA AG focuses on innovation in micro-batteries, household energy, and power storage systems.
