About Recover Recycling
Extending the Life of Batteries Through Repair, Reuse and Responsible Recycling
100% Circular-Focused, From Repair to Responsible Recycling
Recover Recycling Ltd is a UK’s largest battery specialist focused on keeping lithium batteries in productive use for as long as safely possible. From solar and home energy storage batteries to batteries used across mobility, electronics and commercial applications, we assess each battery to determine the most responsible next step. Where a battery can be safely repaired or refurbished, we aim to extend its useful life. Where repair is no longer viable, we provide responsible end-of-life handling and recycling.
Our approach is simple: Assess → Repair → Reuse → Recycle.
The Only UK Company
That REALLY Recycles!
Many collection companies that already exist in the UK, simply collect lithium-ion batteries but do not recycle as they promise to. Instead, they will simply collect your batteries and dispose of them in landfills and dumpsites, where they remain high-risk and environmentally damaging.
Companies that do recycle their batteries, do so by sending them abroad which increases CO2 emissions as units are transported across seas.
Based in Newport, Wales, Recover is the only company in the UK that recycles 100% of the Lithium-Ion Batteries that we collect, we do so locally, further reducing our impact on the environment.

The Dangers of Lithium-Ion
Fire and explosions caused by:
- Overheating
- Overcharging
- Discharging too quickly
- Water
- Puncture or damage
Extending Battery Life, Reducing Battery Waste
Recover Recycling Ltd exists to address a simple problem: too many lithium batteries reach the waste stream before their full potential has been explored.
As battery use has grown across home energy storage, renewable energy, mobility, electronics and commercial applications, so has the need for specialist expertise in assessing what should happen when those batteries develop faults, lose performance or reach the end of their original application.
Recover takes a repair-first, circular approach. Rather than treating every faulty or ageing battery as waste, we assess whether it can be safely repaired, refurbished or prepared for an appropriate second-life application.
When further use is no longer technically or safely viable, we provide responsible collection and recycling through appropriate downstream routes.
This approach allows Recover to support the complete battery lifecycle:
Why is Recycling
Lithium-ion so important?
Be Green
By taking the responsibility of disposing of your lithium-ion batteries, you are helping to reduce the waste produced when making and transporting the batteries, as well as reducing the waste in our landfills.
Be Safe
It's important to remember the safety dangers lithium-ion batteries pose. A common issue that can occur with these batteries is overheating, which can result in fires and explosions. By storing and transporting the batteries correctly, we can reduce the risk and provide a safer lithium-ion recycling solution.
Be Responsible
We all have a responsibility to ensure that our products do not create more waste than necessary, and recycling is the answer. This responsibility is not only an ethical one but it is also a legal requirement.
