Battery Safety Campaign Toolkit
At Call2Recycle, we are all about protecting what matters. That means ensuring safe and responsible battery collection and recycling across Canada, but it also means keeping our communities safe from battery-related incidents.
While we manage millions of kilograms of batteries each year for thousands of Canadian partners, prioritizing safety throughout the entire process – from collection and transport to sorting and processing, battery-related incidents are on the rise. To effectively address this challenge, we need a collective effort, starting with public education and awareness.
We’re excited to offer our ‘Protect What Matters. Be Battery Safe.’ Toolkit. This resource is designed to support you in educating your community on how to Be Battery Safe through responsible purchasing, use, handling, and recycling.
