Trojan Battery Receives Frost & Sullivan 2013 "Innovative Enterprise" Award

Trojan Battery was recognized for its innovative use of technology and equipment at its Lithonia, Ga. manufacturing facility.

SANTA FE SPRINGS, Calif., Feb. 21, 2013 -- Trojan Battery Company, the

world's leading manufacturer of deep-cycle batteries, has been honored by
industry research and consulting firm Frost & Sullivan and awarded its 2013
Manufacturing Leadership 100 Award (ML100) in the category of "Innovative
Enterprise."

Trojan Battery was recognized for its innovative use of technology and
equipment at its Lithonia, Ga. manufacturing facility. Since the
manufacture of deep-cycle batteries takes precision, accuracy and succinct
methods to ensure the proper assembly of the delicate internal components,
Trojan implemented specially designed Cast-On-Strap (COS) equipment to
ensure the proper placement and connectivity of deep-cycle battery features,
which ensures the highest level of product quality.

"Trojan Battery is honored to receive this prestigious recognition by Frost
& Sullivan for the company's advanced manufacturing processes," said Gordon
Beckley, senior vice president of engineering and quality assurance for
Trojan Battery. "This award reinforces Trojan's strategy of combining
advanced manufacturing technology, premium components, and exacting
standards for quality to ensure our batteries provide customers with the
performance and reliability Trojan has become known for over the past 85
years."

The Manufacturing Leadership 100 Awards honor companies and individuals that
are shaping the future of global manufacturing. Trojan's receipt of the
2013 ML100 Innovative Enterprise Award was based on the evaluation of the
company's manufacturing achievements by an independent panel of expert
judges and peers in the industry. Trojan Battery's recent manufacturing
successes and innovations were benchmarked against a number of other
companies competing for this same recognition.

Manufacturing Leadership 100 Award winners will be honored on May 15 in Palm
Beach, Fla. at the ninth annual Manufacturing Leadership Summit.
