NEW EU BATTERY ESTABLISHMENT REQUIREMENTS AND COMPLYMARKET SOLUTIONS
The new battery regulation of the European Union has a wide range of influences for manufacturers, importers and distributors of batteries and battery -powered products. The proposed Battery Regulation in December 2020 aims to ensure that the batteries placed in the EU market are sustainable and safe throughout their life cycles. Here is what you need to know about new battery editing requirements.
- 1. Specable battery design
The new battery arrangement requires manufacturers to design batteries for easy disassembly, reuse and recycling. They should also ensure that batteries have durable, energy efficient and low environmental effect.
Batteries should be labeled with clear and easy -to -understand information about their performances, durability and energy efficiency. This information will help consumers make conscious decisions about which batteries to choose.
- 3. Restrictions on the substances
The new battery regulation restricts the use of dangerous substances, including lead, cadmium and mercury. Batteries and battery -powered products should also comply with the Reach Regulation and the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WeeE) directive.
- 4. Performing responsibility
Manufacturers, importers and distributors of batteries and battery -powered products should take responsibility for the collection, processing and recycling of waste batteries. They should also provide consumers about how to throw batteries in an environmentally friendly way.
Manufacturers, importers and distributors of batteries and battery -powered products should register to national authorities in every EU country where the product is sold. In addition, each product type must also report the sales volumes.
