• Saft operates a network of over 30 bring back
points worldwide that receive spent Ni-Cd batteries
manufactured by Saft. The bring back points located
in northern Europe bring these used batteries back to
Oskarshamn, minimizing transportation. Other bring
back points work with other fully permitted recycling
partners selected by Saft. This take back and recycling
service ensures that the recycling efficiency mandated
by the EU battery directive is met and that we have closed
the loop on responsible production of Ni-Cd batteries.
