What happens to my batteries once they’ve been collected?
Recycling is a great way to help protect the environment as it saves energy and lowers CO2 emissions from extracting raw materials.
Every battery placed in a recycling bin will be taken apart at a specialist treatment facility where the valuable materials will be recovered. Batteries contain plastics, metals, minerals and precious elements like gold, silver or palladium – all of which can be recycled and used back in manufacturing.
