In a society ever more dependent on battery usage to fulfil daily requirements, but a lack of consumer knowledge on safe disposal of waste batteries, the inevitable result is a concerning increase in battery related fires. The pressure is on to find a timely solution, but with regulatory reform taking time, what options do we have?

In this session, AJ Marsh and Catherine Horne will present evidence showing the current poor-management of battery producer obligations and will uncover the fresh approach Recycling Lives Services will take in managing their battery producer compliance scheme from 2025, aiming to proactively tackle well known industry issues head on.
