Creating a better environment, together
Sortbat was founded in 2010 in Tienen, Belgium. Our first activity focused on sorting batteries collected by Bebat. Since then, we’ve grown into an international company, structured around 4 core business units: Sorting, Precycling, Circular and Consulting.
Over the years, we’ve expanded our expertise and reach through several acquisitions, which have also established our presence in Norway. This makes Sortbat Europe's leading specialist and pioneer in the secure treatment of used batteries.
Our mission and vision
We want to empower a sustainable future by pioneering battery afterlife. That’s why we’re on a mission to turn used batteries into valuable resources; optimising their entire journey from first use to reuse or recycling. With advanced technologies and strong partnerships, we handle battery packaging, transport, sorting and dismantling with care and precision.
Our vision?
To set the standard for circular battery management, by continuously innovating, ensuring safety and efficiency, and helping industries adopt transparent, sustainable practices.
