Recser recycles your batteries<\/h1>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”22px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Recser manages the separate collection, pre-treatment, recycling, and promotion of recycling of batteries in Finland on behalf of more than 9,800 producers.<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\"\"Established in 2008 by battery and accumulator producers, Recser Oy is a non-profit organisation whose duty is to take care of the separate collection, pre-processing and recycling of batteries and accumulators, as well as the promotion of recycling, in Finland. On behalf of its producers, Recser Oy reports to the Finnish Supervisory Agency, which supervises operations subject to producer responsibility in Finland, including the separate collection and recycling of batteries and accumulators.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”5\/6″ offset=”vc_col-lg-offset-1 vc_col-lg-10″ css=”.vc_custom_1512687998699{padding-right: 6% !important;padding-left: 6% !important;}”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Easy for producers and consumers<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\"\"Carrying out the producer responsibility must be easy for producers and returning batteries and accumulators to collection points must be convenient for consumers. Over the course of ten years, Recser has collaborated with its partners to establish a network of 13,000 collection points in Finland and recycled a total of more than 10 million kilograms of batteries and small accumulators. You probably recognise the red collection box from your local store.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”5\/6″ offset=”vc_col-lg-offset-1 vc_col-lg-10″ css=”.vc_custom_1522115655803{padding-right: 6% !important;padding-left: 6% !important;}”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

A positive charge remains<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]When batteries no longer have a charge, Paristokierr\u00e4tys ensures that a positive charge remains \u2013 the materials contained in batteries and accumulators are recycled and reused as industrial raw materials. From the collection points, the batteries and accumulators are first transported to be sorted and pre-processed at the Akkuser Oy plant in Nivala and then transported in different fractions to destinations such as Kokkola, Haapaj\u00e4rvi and further in Europe. We also keep up with the challenges brought about by product development and meet those challenges as pioneers.
