As lead has one of the highest recycling rates of all common use materials today, at Shiv Shakti Metals Recycling we specialise in the collection and recycling of scrap lead, maximising its recyclable uses in an economical and environmentally friendly fashion.
At the recycling facility
Once the batteries have been transported and unloaded at the recycling facility, the batteries are broken apart and separated into three different components before the recycling process:
- Plastic
Plastic casing recovered from battery cases and covers are turned into pellets before being manufactured into new cases and covers. - Lead
The lead ingots from the battery grids and other lead-based battery parts and lead-oxide are used to manufacture lead for recycled grids, parts and lead oxide.
