Special feature of Li-ion batteries
Li-ion batteries are flammable substances and can be dangerous. They are used, for example, in electric tools, gardening equipment, toys, MP3 players, toothbrushes, razors, electric bikes, cell phones, tablets, laptops, etc.

The take-back system
The 'GRS Batterien' foundation is a joint manufacturer take-back system. The aim is to further increase the quantity of used portable batteries and rechargeable batteries returned and to find and optimize new technologies for sorting and recycling.
The batteries and accumulators are then sorted and subsequently recycled and disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.
