As we mark #GlobalRecyclingDay today, we're celebrating the circular journey of our batteries at VARTA. Our parent company, Clarios, operates a remarkable closed-loop system that turns nearly 200,000 old car batteries into new ones daily. With up to 99% of battery materials recovered and reused, this process uses 90% less energy and produces fewer emissions than using virgin materials. For garages and motor factors, this means you're not just fitting quality batteries—you're contributing to one of the world's most successful recycling initiatives that makes a real environmental difference. #TrustedByTrade #Sustainability #ItAllStartsWithVARTA
