Question

On the backs of many battery packs we get, it is marked "Made in the UK." Are all of Rayovac batteries made in the United Kingdom?

Answer

Rayovac is the only hearing aid battery manufacturer with 2 plants. One of our plants is in Portage, Wisconsin USA. This plant manufactures size 10, 312, & 13 hearing aid batteries. We also have a plant in the UK that makes size 13, 312 and 675 hearing aid batteries. The US plant ships size 10 batteries to the UK and the UK plant ships size 675 to the US. This overlap ensures that if there were ever a disaster, we can take care of our customers under any circumstance.
