And thereby meet their “duty of care” and “chain of responsibility” requirements. The Battery Transport & Storage Container, helps companies comply with the various regulations governing the storage and transportation of lead acid batteries.

Used lead acid batteries are a Controlled Hazardous Waste and a designated Dangerous Good and as such must be stored, handled, transported and recycled in accordance with Environmental, Dangerous Goods and Workplace Health and Safety regulations. Regulation Compliance & Chain of Responsibility

When full the Battery Container can be closed and ready for transport in less than 30 seconds.Ĥ. When secured by the 6 stainless steel over center latches, it is incredibly strong and the load of heavy batteries very secure. Its bunded base ensures any acid leaks are contained during transport. The BTS is better suited for transporting used lead acid batteries than the commonly used wood pallet. Safe, Convenient & Environmentally Sustainable Used Battery Transportation

The BTS Container also provides a convenient & clearly identified location for used lead acid battery storage.ģ. The 25 litre bunded base captures and prevents acid leaks into the environment and the weather resistant design enables batteries to be stored outdoor. The Battery Container’s front load configuration enables the ergonomic loading of heavy car batteries into the Battery Container. Safe, Convenient & Environmentally Sustainable Used Battery Storage

From the point of storage to the battery recycler, there is no manual handling of batteries required. The BTS Container is designed for used lead acid batteries to be collected from the “coal face”, the Used Battery Generators, and be delivered directly to the Battery Recycling Facilities, where the used batteries can be automatically unloaded. Eliminates Double and Manual Handling of Used Batteries The major benefits of the BTS Container for the storage and transportation of used lead acid batteries (ULAB), include ġ. The figure below shows UNISEG’s BTS Container in the front load configuration and its features that make it ideal as a used car battery storage container and lead acid battery container īenefit’s Of UNISEG’s Battery Transport & Storage Container The safety features and environmental benefits of the BTS Container has seen many mining companies such as BHP & Rio Tinto adopt the container for the storage and offsite transport of used lead acid batteries from their mine sites. Each Snap-Flat latch has a breaking strain in excess of 1 Tonne. The 6 stainless steel, self closing over-centre latches, for securing the containers, use a proprietary and patented self closing latch – the Snap-Flat latch.The 4 hinges that join each panel are made from 8mm 304 Stainless Steel Rods.With normal use we anticipate the BTS Containers lasting 10 – 15 years and possibly longer. As well as being UV Resistant & Acid Proof, LDPE is less prone to shattering compared to plastic injected containers.
