For workshops, battery performance is not just about power. It is about reputation and profitability. A failed battery does not only inconvenience the driver. It costs your workshop time, trust, and future business.
At Astraman, we work closely with workshop partners across Malaysia to supply dependable, climate-ready car batteries that reduce failures, improve customer satisfaction, and support long-term business growth. Our two in-house battery brands: Astra Series and BForty Series which are built to meet different customer needs while maintaining consistent quality standards workshops can rely on.
Reliable Car Battery Solutions for Workshops or Garages: Astra Series and BForty Series
Whether you serve private vehicles, fleets, or ride-hailing drivers, we offers battery solutions that are easy to sell and dependable after installation.
Why Workshops Choose Astraman as a Battery Partner
Before diving into the products, here’s what sets Astraman apart as a B2B battery supplier:
- Consistent stock availability for common Japanese and continental models
- Batteries engineered for Malaysia’s heat and traffic conditions
- Clear product positioning: premium vs value, easy to recommend to customers
- Reduced warranty issues through reliable manufacturing standards

Astra Series: Premium Car Battery for High-Demand Customers
Built for Workshops That Prioritise Performance and Longevity
The Astra Series is our flagship car battery line, designed for workshops that serve customers who expect top-tier performance, longer lifespan, and peace of mind. It is ideal for modern vehicles, higher electrical loads, and customers willing to pay for quality.
SIRIM Certified Across the Range
Astra is SIRIM IEC 60095 certified across all 28 SKUs, including:
- Maintenance Free (MF)
- Enhanced Flooded Battery (EFB)
- Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM)
For workshops, this certification is more than a label. It means a clear compliance with Malaysian standards which makes easier justification to customers and promised lower risk of premature failure.
Strong Selling Points
Astra batteries offer measurable performance advantages you can confidently explain to customers:
- Up to 3× longer cycle life, reducing early replacements
- Up to 1.5× higher Cold-Cranking Amps (CCA) for more reliable starts
- Up to 5× faster recharge efficiency, ideal for stop-start vehicles and short-distance driving
These benefits translate into fewer complaints, fewer warranty claims, and stronger customer trust.
Optimised for Tropical Conditions
Malaysia’s heat accelerates battery wear. Astra is engineered to handle:
- High under-bonnet temperatures
- Frequent stop-start driving
- Urban congestion and highway use
For workshops, this means fewer battery-related returns and more confident recommendations for premium returning customers.
BForty Series: Value-Driven Battery for Everyday Vehicles
Reliable, Affordable, and Easy to Sell
The BForty Series is designed for workshops serving price-sensitive customers, high-volume replacements, and daily-use vehicles. It offers dependable performance without over-engineering, making it an excellent option for fast-moving inventory.
Ideal for High-Turnover Workshop Environments
BForty is well-suited for:
- Daily commuters
- Older vehicles
- Ride-hailing and delivery cars
- Customers prioritising affordability
With commonly used JIS sizes and consistent specifications, BForty simplifies stock management for workshops.
Maintenance-Free and Hassle-Free
BForty batteries use a sealed maintenance-free (SMF) design, meaning:
- No electrolyte top-ups
- Less customer misuse
- Fewer post-installation issues
This makes BForty a low-risk product for workshops handling large replacement volumes.
Eco-Conscious Without Sacrificing Reliability
BForty is developed with eco-friendly considerations, offering a greener alternative while maintaining a typical 3–5 year lifespan under normal usage. It’s an easy recommendation for customers who want value with responsibility.
Astra vs BForty: Clear Product Positioning for Better Conversion

BForty Series, ABudget-Friendly Recommendation
