According to ILA, 99% of lead batteries in Europe and the US are collected at the end of their life and recycled to produce lead needed for new batteries, creating a truly closed-loop circular economy. Ecobat’s closed-loop recycling system means we manage the recycling process from start to finish, from collection through recycling through production of metal alloys, recycled plastics and materials from sulfur and, finally, distribution and servicing of new batteries.  We accomplish this using  our extensive global network of collection, recycling and distribution facilities. This allows us to maximize the recyclability of and return from recycled batteries, increasing value to our customers and enabling greater sustainability.

El proceso comienza con la recolección de baterías para su reciclaje y su entrega en nuestras instalaciones. El material principal de estas baterías se recupera y refina para fabricar plomo y aleaciones de plomo de la más alta calidad, de las cuales más del 80% se reutiliza en la fabricación de baterías. Al mantener las baterías dentro de nuestra red, minimizamos los requisitos logísticos de transporte de baterías y reducimos así nuestro impacto medioambiental.

Alongside our lead production and recycling operations, Ecobat also manages the reclamation of polypropylene used in the development of premium polymer solutions. For more than a decade, we’ve been developing PP-recyclate as a high-quality alternative to industry polymers.
