The company offers scalable, environmentally sustainable solutions to recover battery materials and delivers recycling plants worldwide. Primobius' recycling plants meet the highest quality, environmental, and HSE standards, enabling the recovery of high-purity metals like lithium, nickel, and cobalt from various cell chemistries, types, and formats, to allow a reintegration into battery supply chains. As a joint venture of SMS group and Neometals Ltd, Primobius combines extensive engineering expertise and know-how in sustainable resource recovery.

Enabling sustainable battery recycling

Primobius empowers customers from diverse industries to efficiently solve their core challenges in lithium-ion battery recycling. Automobile OEMs, battery producers, and recyclers can utilize Primobius plants to recover valuable minerals that would otherwise be lost as waste, thereby improving their carbon footprint. They can select from an innovative portfolio of recycling solutions that enable the extraction of high-purity metals such as cobalt, nickel, lithium, copper, manganese, and other materials in an environmentally friendly manner. Primobius contributes to sustainable and secure battery recycling by:

  • supporting a safe handling and disposal of flammable and hazardous materials
  • increasing the recycling rate and quality of valuable battery materials, offering sustainable technologies rather than large environmental footprint smelting
  • allowing clients to reintegrate valuable materials back into the supply chain, supporting domestic raw material supply resilience and fostering a circular economy
  • minimizing overall life emissions associated with LiB manufacturing to reduce the embedded carbon footprint for the electric vehicle manufacturing supply chain
