Babel Factories:

Babel factories produce different kinds of lead acid batteries for starting (S.L.I) according to the international specifications No. (IEC-95) and Iraqi standard specifications No.(81), these batteries are dry charged and can be used after being filled with diluted sulfuric acid with specific gravity (1.240 – 1.250) i.e., No need for more charging. The company produces batteries with plastic containers of different capacities according to  SBMC specifications table .

Al-Noor Factory:

The factory produces dry batteries type (Zn-MnO2) used for electrical applications of lighting torches, tape recorders, baby toys ...etc. Three standard sizes are produced (R-20 , R-14 , R-6) using raw materials of high quality.
