Certified
reverse
logistics.

The Brazilian National Solid Waste Policy (PNRS, Law 12.305/2010) requires manufacturers, importers, distributors and retailers to structure reverse logistics for lithium batteries. Operational fines range from R$ 500 to R$ 50 million.

Energy Source takes on the full cycle: scheduled collection, transport with ANTT documentation, certified processing and issuance of MTR and Certificate of Environmentally Adequate Disposal — all with national coverage.

What is reverse logistics
The set of actions, procedures and means designed to enable the return of waste to the business sector — for reuse or environmentally adequate final disposal.
