Founded in 2018, Aloe Ecell operates in the primary battery segment and manufactures AA and AAA batteries using an aloe vera extract-based electrolyte, instead of conventional chemical compounds. The batteries are designed for low-power household devices such as remote controls, clocks, toys, and cameras, and are positioned as leak-proof and recyclable.
The company is targeting what it describes as an under-addressed environmental issue. An average individual in India discards between 15 and 20 batteries annually, translating to nearly 23 billion used batteries each year. Studies cited by the company suggest that a single discarded battery can contaminate up to 1.67 lakh litres of water.
