Thinking global & green

The HOPPECKE return and recycling system for lead-acid batteries constitutes a substantial contribution to the protection of the natural resources. We have been operating our own company smelter for more than 55 years. This ultra-modern facility is expanded continuously and is operated at the latest state-of-the-art. Furthermore, we are working actively on the presentation of recycling directives and standards. However, HOPPECKE does not only set standards in relation to recycling. Sustainability starts for us with the product development. Our products and services also contribute to a great extent to the achievement of the climate change objectives.

We actively help shape the turnaround in energy policy!
