Chaviarte stores collect used batteries in partnership with ERP Portugal

Chaviarte has joined ERP Portugal, the Waste Management Entity, and is now part of the Depositrão Network, collecting used batteries throughout its network of stores from the north to the south of the country.

This partnership allows customers to leave used batteries in the Bring Batteries boxes available in Chaviarte stores and Chaviarte is responsible for forwarding them to ERP Portugal for recycling.

Due to their components and lifespan, batteries are one of the most polluting and damaging waste products on the planet. As a company that also sells this product, Chaviarte believes it is important to reduce its environmental footprint and make its customers aware of the importance of recycling.

Recycling reduces the extraction of virgin raw materials, saves energy and also reduces landfills that contaminate the environment with toxic and dangerous substances. The result will be a safer, greener and healthier planet.
