Battery Bins
Battery Recycling Law for Shops: From February 2010, all shops that sell more than one pack of batteries a day have a legal obligation to provide a container for shoppers to recycle old batteries. Recycling batteries protects the environment.
The 5ltr transparent container is ideal for collecting batteries at smaller retail sites and placing at point of sale locations and the 10ltr, 20ltr are ideal for collecting batteries in high traffic locations such as supermarkets, retail outlets, shopping centres. 20ltr tube features two large, robust handles enabling the tube to be easily carried and emptied.
In the UK we currently recycle 3% of old batteries which means that thousands of tons of nasty heavy metals and chemicals are leaching into the ground water around land fill sites. The government intention is to increase the battery recycling rate to 45% in the next 5 years.
