CAR MANUFACTURING

The issue of how to process and dispose of used lithium-batteries is a real challenge for electric car manufacturers and OEMs. Lithium batteries can be highly flammable and are therefore represent a significant fire risk, particularly if multiple numbers are kept in storage.

Car manufacturers have been at the heart of the electric vehicle revolution over the last decade and as lithium batteries have evolved, so too has the viability of electrically powered transport, both in terms of charge longevity and power. Although the end of life market for EVs may still be in its infancy at present, the volume of damaged and expired lithium batteries being returned to manufacturers is likely to expand dramatically and quickly. Even now, many EV manufacturers will have received a steady trickle of these vehicles due to warranty issues, crash or fire damage.

The avenues currently available to deal with these lithium-ion batteries is still fairly limited, and Cawleys’ Lithium Battery Recycling Solutions are one of the very few organisations that are thoroughly equipped and regulated to deal with them.

From fireproof storage boxes to hire or buy, to transportation and fully dismantling and recycling in our specialist workshop, we have the full range of services to eliminate the challenge of expired lithium vehicle batteries.
