Industrial batteries present a combination of weight, stored energy and, depending on the chemistry, corrosive electrolyte or lithium cells. Handled incorrectly they present fire, spill and manual handling risks, which is why they require planned removal rather than being set aside for general collection.

Our service supports the recycling of traction packs from electric and hybrid vehicles, individual modules and cells, and lithium-ion batteries removed during repair or recall work. We handle end-of-life packs alongside damaged, defective and recalled units requiring individual risk assessment.
Every project is managed by experienced personnel with specialist knowledge of high voltage systems, supported by clear documentation and fully traceable processes throughout

We begin by assessing the battery types, quantities, condition and site access to determine the most appropriate recycling solution, including any lifting, containment or segregation required before collection.
Once a plan is agreed, our team coordinates safe collection and transportation using approved handling procedures and, where the chemistry requires it, our own ADR fleet. Batteries are then transferred for treatment through authorised facilities, where lead, plastics, lithium, nickel and cobalt are recovered and returned to the supply chain wherever possible.
Throughout the process, we maintain detailed records and reporting, providing clients with a complete audit trail from collection through to final processing.

Industrial batteries carry strict storage, transportation and treatment requirements, together with the consignment documentation that accompanies hazardous waste. Our services are delivered in line with relevant waste management and transportation regulations, ensuring batteries are handled safely at every stage.
By prioritising recycling and material recovery, we help organisations reduce environmental impact while meeting their legal and sustainability obligations.
We understand the practical challenges associated with removing and replacing industrial batteries, and provide solutions built around your operation rather than a fixed collection round. Our experience in managing regulated waste streams, combined with our own collection fleet and specialist facilities, allows us to support projects of all sizes.
Whether managing routine battery collections or supporting large-scale replacement programmes, we deliver reliable services with safety, compliance and sustainability at their core.

Industrial batteries are those designed for industrial or professional use rather than consumer products. This includes forklift and traction batteries, standby and UPS batteries, telecoms and back-up power cells, and the lithium packs used in materials handling, access equipment and mobility products.
Yes. Lead acid forklift batteries are highly recyclable, with lead, plastic casing and acid electrolyte all recovered and reprocessed. Lithium forklift packs are processed through specialist treatment routes to recover lithium, nickel and cobalt.
Batteries should be stored upright on a stable, level surface, away from combustible materials, with terminals protected to prevent short circuits. Our team can advise on suitable storage containers and segregation based on the chemistries involved.
Yes. We collect and recycle lithium and lithium-ion industrial batteries, including packs from materials handling equipment, access platforms and mobility products. Damaged or defective packs are risk assessed individually and transported using specialist procedures.
Yes. We have specialist processes for handling damaged, defective, recalled and end-of-life batteries safely and compliantly, including suitable containment for units with acid leaks or cell damage.
Most enquiries receive a quotation within the hour, with collections often arranged the next day or within 72 hours, depending on the waste type(s), quantity and location(s).
We typically need details about the waste type(s), quantity, packaging, collection location(s) and any specific compliance requirements. Photographs can often help us provide a quicker and more accurate quotation.
Yes. We operate our own fleet collecting from over 2,500 customer collection points throughout the UK and also support collections across Europe, with expertise in managing international waste shipments. We work with manufacturers, dealerships, waste management companies, facilities management providers and other organisations requiring specialist waste solutions.
