Expert in the lead circular economy in France, Recylex collects used lead batteries throughout Europe. Recylex is the most effective recycling solution and the most complete environmental process for used batteries. Within the Group, 92% of the components of a lead-acid battery and 98% of the lead are recycled internally, according to the calculation method used in Europe (EU Regulation 493/2012 on the calculation of recycling efficiencies for waste batteries and accumulators).
We collect used lead-acid batteries (and only lead-acid batteries) at our French specialized plants in Villefranche-sur-Saône (69-Auvergne Rhône-Alpes, France) and Escaudœuvres (59 - Hauts de France, France), two ISO 14001:2015 certified sites.
Collection is carried out in accordance with current environmental standards and the Group's environmental commitments.
To learn more about our collection services, download our brochure (below) or contact our purchasing department.
The used batteries are crushed according to a process patented by our engineers, in order to separate lead and polypropylene.
The lead obtained is delivered by multimodal means (mainly by river to limit our carbon footprint) to our customers, especially Weser-Metall GmbH, where it is recovered in the form of ingots listed on the London Metal Exchange (LME).
It is our C2P subsidiary, based in Villefranche-sur-Saône, which recycles polypropylene from the crushing of used batteries.
A technical question, a price or collection request: your Recylex contact person is just a phone call away. Our sales team knows how to listen to your requests and provide them with appropriate answers. We support you in all stages of battery recycling.
Recylex is the first to have provided its partners with a complete, safe and adapted system for their logistics and storage management, with the free provision of acid-resistant stainless steel skips or plastic containers for the clean transport of used batteries.
Recylex provides you with its turnkey solutions at all stages of the collection of used lead batteries. Your collection requests are managed online and your used batteries are collected by a carrier authorized by Recylex.
We recycle used batteries in our own specialized factories, in accordance with current environmental standards. You have permanent traceability of the treatment of your waste by means of the regulatory Waste Tracking Sheet.
At each of our sites, in addition to the attention paid to the health and safety of our employees, we dedicate employees to welcoming and accompanying carriers, so that when they visit our sites they benefit from appropriate individual protection and receive the mandatory safety and lead protection instructions.
The proximity and quality of the advice provided to our partners is our priority. We take the same care to ensure the excellence of our commercial relations and our administrative and accounting follow-up. A pedagogical sorting guide allows you to identify the different types of batteries in order to have them recycled by the right approved channels.
In accordance with the Recylex Group's Sustainable Performance Charter, our Quality, Health, Safety and Environment policy is designed to meet the regulatory requirements related to the conduct of our activities; to protect the health of the personnel working on our sites; to respect the environment and ensure the safety of our activities and to promote the improvement of the QHSE management system. In this context, our recycling plants in Villefranche-sur-Saône (69-Auvergne Rhône-Alpes) and Escaudœuvres (59 - Hauts de France) are ISO14001:2015 certified.
