Marking requirements for batteries. Beginning January 1, 2030, marked with proper labeling to ensure proper collection and recycling, by identifying the chemistry of the battery and including an indication that the battery should not be disposed of as household waste.
From 18 August 2025, all batteries shall be marked with the symbol for separate collection of batteries (‘separate collection symbol’) as shown in Part B of Annex VI. Where the size of the battery is such that the separate collection symbol would be smaller than 0,47 × 0,47 cm, the battery does not need to be marked with that symbol.
Energy storage batteries store electrical energy for later use. They convert electrical energy into chemical energy during charging and reverse the process during discharging. Lithium-ion: Known for high energy density and efficiency, commonly used in portable electronics and electric vehicles.
Existing labeling requirements in the United States, the EU, and Japan include messaging and/or symbols indicating that batteries and battery-containing products should be recycled, but battery labels do not provide clear instructions for users to determine where or how batteries should be collected.
All batteries must include general information on their category, chemistry, and whether they are rechargeable. All batteries containing more than 0.002% Cd or 0.004% Pb must be marked with the chemical symbol for the metal concerned. The manual recommends compliance with the U.S. Battery Act of 1996 requirement to include a Ni-Cd or Pb label.
