Stibat stands for Batteries Foundation.
This is the organization that coordinates the collection activities for spent batteries in the Netherlands.
They develop activities in various areas to inform everyone about how and why to collect spent batteries.
And this is done on a non-profit basis.
Since 1995, there has been a statutory regulation requiring used batteries to be collected and recycled by or on behalf of battery producers and importers.
Stibat has taken on this task.
A so-called disposal fee must be paid per battery.
This month was THE boat reveal of TU Delft’s Hydro Motion Team and we are proud battery sponsors there. See below the boat the students designed themselves, which contains the battery.
