THE COMPLETE WASTE BATTERY SERVICE

More than 70 per cent of the lead currently in circulation is recycled and of that, more than three quarters of the lead produced is used to manufacture vehicle batteries.

Our facilities in the EU:

APSM and STCM

SECONDARY LEAD SMELTERS
WITH THREE OPERATIONS IN FRANCE

Created in 1952, ECOBAT’s presence in France is the APSM and STCM group of companies, which has plants in three locations, Pont Sante-Maxence, Bazoches-les-Gallerandes and Toulouse.

The companies employ 90 staff and produce around 80,000 tonnes of lead and lead alloys per year, together with polypropylene. Most of their raw materials derive from the automotive and industrial markets via waste lead acid batteries and accumulators.

As with all Ecobat companies, the French operation is run to the highest possible health, safety and environmental standards.
