European Compliance Organisations (CO's)

Compliance organisations carry out all the practical elements related to the producer responsibility requirements. The CO will ensure that batteries are collected, sorted, treated and recycled according to the national implementing regulation. In order to achieve the legal requirements set by the Directive, the system will organize and manage different collection streams and will subcontract the appropriate transporters and recyclers for the end of life management of collected spent batteries. The CO will also fulfil the reporting requirements towards the government on behalf of its members.

You will find below a link to an overview of COs on national level.
