Why recycle?
Batteries and accumulators contain many recyclable metals such as zinc, iron, manganese, nickel, cadmium or lead. Some of these substances are also very dangerous for the environment and human health, especially mercury, lead and cadmium. Selected batteries are often marked with the symbol of the chemical element they contain (Pb, Cd, Hg).
By handing the batteries over to the take-back point, we save primary raw material resources, in particular by recycling materials, while protecting our environment from unprofessional disposal.
