Back in February 2010, the UK created battery recycling laws, supporting both the public and businesses to recycle their used batteries to stop them ending up in landfill sites. Since then, companies have relied on battery recycling collection services to meet their needs. At Collect & Recycle we offer reliable battery recycling process, our services are safe and compliant with battery waste regulations.
Businesses may have come across the term ‘batteries compliance’; this law holds distributors and manufacturers to ‘Waste Batteries Regulations’. If your company imports or makes products containing batteries, you must follow these laws. Companies who sell more than 32kg of batteries come under the category of ‘distributors’. (Bear in mind that 32kg is approximately the equivalent of 345 four packs of aa batteries)!
Businesses who fail to recycle batteries could end up with large fines. As green-initiatives become increasingly important, we’re seeing a shift towards appliances that use renewable energy. From solar-powered calculators to wind- up radios and dynamo torches, many brands are producing appliances that no longer rely on batteries!
