What’s your DDR Lithium-Ion Transport Solution?

Let CRS and our partners help ensure your company never ends up in the headlines for the wrong reasons. 

Legitimate concerns continue to arise regarding the safety of transporting, storing, and recycling lithium-ion batteries. 

Because batteries are often grouped together on a warehouse pallet or in a battery recycling bin, there is an increased risk that batteries still holding on to some charge could catch fire. Having a strategy in place to safely transport, store, and recycle lithium-ion batteries is critical to preventing a crisis and negatively impacting your company’s reputation and livelihood.  

In Europe, containers of used lithium-ion batteries are often filled with sand or vermiculite to prevent them from catching fire during transport. Then, when they arrive at the recycling facility, the batteries are placed in a smelter that separates out half of the materials to be sold to steel, aluminum, copper, and cobalt manufacturers.

Here in the United States, companies across the nation turn to our team to ensure that they consider and address all risk factors associated with lithium-ion batteries.
