By: via Business Wire

ERI, the nation’s largest fully integrated IT and electronics asset disposition (ITAD) provider and cybersecurity-focused hardware destruction company, announced today that it has launched its first alkaline battery recycling plant. The plant is located within ERI’s existing state-of-the-art, full-service, 315,000 square-foot e-waste recycling and ITAD facility in Plainfield, Indiana, where millions of pounds of electronic waste are responsibly recycled each year.

ERI’s alkaline recycling center is now live and has the capability to recycle millions of pounds of alkaline batteries per year utilizing ERI’s propriety clean technology. ERI plans to expand its footprint by opening additional alkaline battery recycling plants throughout the US in 2025 and beyond.

ERI can arrange logistics and accept alkaline batteries at all of its eight locations (Arizona, California, Indiana, Massachusetts, New Jersey, North Carolina, Texas, Washington).

“We are proud and excited to take this latest significant step in the evolution of ERI and the services we provide our customers and the public at large,” said ERI Co-Founder, Chairman and CEO John Shegerian. “Our innovative alkaline battery recycling process produces zero waste products, is circular economy focused and yields clean commodity outputs – creating a truly circular ecosystem. This is a natural progression for us to be able to offer a complementary service to ERI’s existing suite of e-waste, end of life and asset management services.”

Shegerian added that the new plant is able to process every type of alkaline battery.

“It’s genuinely rewarding to be able to help so many people and businesses do the right thing by conveniently and responsibly recycling their alkaline batteries and keeping toxins out of landfills,” Shegerian added.
