Hammond Group

Unlocking lead-acid’s true potential will involve advances to the battery’s primary building blocks as company’s like Hammond Group ‘push the envelope’ to develop new innovations, writes the company's Ray Goodearl, director, Global Accounts - Performance Additives.

When I began my battery industry journey in the late 1980s, the idea never crossed my mind that I would spend the next thirty-plus years participating in an industry that impacts so many aspects of our day-to-day lives. 

This was truly beyond my comprehension. Over the last three decades, much has changed in the lead-acid battery.

Hammond Group, Inc. (HGI), a global producer of lead oxides, Expanders, and specialty chemicals for lead-acid batteries, has acquired 100% ownership of Asia Litharge Sdn Bhd (ALSB), Port Klang, Selangor, Malaysia.
