A strong alliance

More than just Service
The first GRS industry solution set the standard: in 2010, GRS Batterien developed and introduced the concept of the voluntary take-back of drive batteries from e-bikes together with the German Two-Wheeler Industry Association (ZIV). Since 2019, this industry solution has been available to all manufacturers of small electric vehicles and is the ideal solution for manufacturers of e-bikes, e-scooters, e-motorcycles, Segways and other similar sized vehicles. Whether you are a manufacturer, importer or distributor, you and your batteries are in safe hands with our range of products, services and industry leading safety standards. Would you like to join us? Then get in touch with us now!

Safety for All Involved
For manufacturers and importers of small electric vehicles, we take over the nationwide battery collection, recycling and authority reporting obligations. We provide specialist dealers, who are obliged to take back batteries free of charge, with the required equipment, such as collection containers, information posters and letters on the correct and safe handling of Li-Ion batteries classified as hazardous goods. Waste lithium batteries can be safely stored in the containers provided by us. The conveyance is carried out by selected and trained service providers. All batteries taken over by us are properly recycled according to the highest environmental standards.
