Karat Power (Johnson Controls)

The foundations of Karat Power Systems were laid in 1995 with battery distribution service under the name of Delta Power Systems Inc., and in 1996, it became the first company to establish a regional dealership system in the battery sector in Turkey.
The company expanded its service scope in 1999 and became the sole distributor of Delphi Spare Parts in Turkey. Karat Power, which focused only on distribution until 2000, decided to invest in battery production in 2000 and signed a technology license and brand agreement with Delphi in the same year. In this direction, the factory built in TAYSAD Organized Industrial Zone started its operations in 2004.
In June 2005, after the world's number 1 battery manufacturer Johnson Controls International (JCI) acquired the Delphi Battery Division, mutual negotiations started with JCI. As a result of these negotiations, the Turkey distributorship of Varta, the world's leading battery brand manufactured by JCI, was undertaken.
