PR Newswire
CHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 6, 2025
Battery Extended Producer Responsibility laws have passed in nine states, while others have active legislation
CHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As new Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws for batteries sweep across the United States, companies throughout the battery supply chain are facing complex challenges in navigating compliance requirements, reporting obligations and sustainable end-of-life (EOL) battery management. Cirba Solutions, the premier battery recycling materials and management provider with over 30 years of industry leadership, is uniquely positioned to guide companies through this new and dynamic regulatory landscape, providing robust, sustainable solutions.
Batteries are found almost everywhere – in data storage systems, electronics, vehicles, e-mobility, power tools, toys, etc. Battery EPR regulations vary by state and format, covering small, medium or large formats, and in some instances by specific chemistries. In certain cases, the regulations provide exceptions to certain types of usage formats, such as embedded batteries or those used for non-consumer medical devices.
Cirba Solutions is setting the industry standard by offering a comprehensive end-to-end approach for customers that combines advanced reporting capabilities, nationwide logistical support, compliance and battery processing, while managing all battery chemistries for the company's customers. The battery recycling expert is equipped to support its partners through:
