(EN) SUNLIGHT Recycling // Lead-acid Batteries Recycling (ULAB)

SUNLIGHT Recycling is the Lead-acid Battery Recycling Branch of SYSTEMS SUNLIGHT S.A., expanding the business ecosystem developed by the Panos Germanos Group of Companies. Recognising the potential of the Greek market, and having a clear commitment to support the domestic economy, SUNLIGHT Recycling has built the most contemporary Lead-acid Battery Recycling Unit in Europe, which constitutes an investment of over €31 million in its first phase. The new recycling plant, built in a plot area of 4.2 hectare in the Industrial Area of Komotini (Prefecture of Rodopi), will be able to recycle 25,000 tons of spent batteries per year, creating multiple financial and environmental benefits at local and national level. SUNLIGHT Recycling presents the first holistic approach to the recycling of lead-acid batteries in Greece, as it covers the full recycling cycle. That is, the collection and accumulation of spent batteries, their recycling based on international quality standards, and the use of recycled materials for the production of new batteries in Greece by SYSTEMS SUNLIGHT. For the construction and the implementation of this investment, SUNLIGHT RECYCLING, entered into a strategic collaboration with Engitec, a global leader in engineering, procurement, construction and operation of lead-acid batteries recycling plants. This collaboration ensures unrivalled quality in the design of the plant, the construction of the equipment, and the recovered materials. The production process of the plant has been shaped using cutting-edge expertise, ensuring top environmental performances. For more info http://www.sunlight-recycling.com/
