About Mecaware

Mecaware produces recycled strategic metals (lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese) from battery waste.

Thanks to our innovative effluent-free process, notably sulfate-free, we limit our impact on the environment and locate our plant as close as possible to the deposits, in situ for Gigafactories.
