Why Is Recycling Vapes Important?

Five million disposable vapes are thrown away each week in the UK. Whilst recycling bins and points are provided, only 17% of vapers use these correctly. Similar to electric vehicles, which rely heavily on lithium-ion batteries, disposable vapes contain lithium and other valuable metals that can be recovered. 

By recycling vapes, we can reclaim these limited resources, reducing the demand for mining and the environmental damage associated with it. This is especially important as lithium is a finite resource and is crucial in advancing other green technologies.

Disposable vapes are also composed of a mix of metals, lithium-ion batteries, and plastic casings. When vapes are discarded into regular waste bins or household recycling, they can end up in landfills, where chemicals and battery components leach into the soil and water.
