Our Company

Raw Materials Company

Raw Materials Company (RMC) was established in 1985 based on a belief and vision that all consumer batteries need to be managed responsibly and not discarded into municipal landfills, regardless of type.

Our focus has always been to find solutions that are not only economical, but also solutions that are considered socially and environmentally sustainable. The RMC 3500 recycling efficiency rate of 84% has been independently audited and verified under the CSA - SPE-890-15, a guideline for the accountable management of end-of-life materials. Our technology is forever evolving as we push ourselves to stay on pace with advances in battery manufacturing.

RMC is very proud to have engineered a battery recycling process that recycles and reuses all of the components of an alkaline battery in a sustainable manner, nothing is landfilled.

Working alongside producer responsibility programs, RMC has managed to increase Ontario's battery collection and recycling rate to the highest rate in North America. All recycled materials are reused in industry, preventing the need for further mining and depletion of our finite natural resources. This creates jobs at RMC and employment opportunities with the companies that consume our materials.

With society's growing dependence on all things electronic, the issue of responsible stewardship of spent batteries will only become more prevalent in the years ahead.

At Raw Materials Company, we are committed to providing the world with the most efficient and sustainable battery recycling solution for consumer batteries.
