Haddon trademarked the name and in 1920 began the manufacturing of wooden cased lead acid batteries.
From there the brand grew and became one of the UK’s largest battery manufactures, selling over 700,000 batteries per year.
Platinum Batteries (Europe) Ltd took on the Tungstone brand in 2009 and has continued to sell the prestigious brand in to the aftermarket.
2015 has seen the introduction of the new Tungstone batteries on-line Portal, which allows you to perform a Vehicle Registration Mark (VRM) search, amongst other useful tools. All product specifications and information previously only available in the printed catalogue is also accessible through this portal.
Known at both trade & consumer level, Tungstone provides superior power to a number of markets, such as:
- Automotive – Including Start / Stop
- Commercial Vehicles
- Leisure / Marine

When fitting a new battery, there may be the need for a battery validation reset. The new Connect Portal highlights when a vehicle requires a Platinum Connect Diagnostic Tool, following a VRM search.
