NewerTech’s ‘No Battery Left Behind’ encourages environmental responsibility
Newer Technology (NewerTech) makes proper battery disposal easy by including a Free Return Shipping Label with every NuPower laptop replacement battery sold. As an added measure of convenience, no extra packaging materials are needed as that the NuPower battery box is designed to be reusable for the battery disposal return.
By making it as simple as taking the NuPower battery out of the box, putting the expired battery from the laptop in, and affixing the prepaid return shipping label, NewerTech continues its leading position in providing a no-cost means for customers to ensure that old PowerBook and iBook batteries are properly disposed of and that recoverable materials are responsibly recycled.
NewerTech’s battery return programs assure proper recycling of recoverable materials and prevent toxic elements from leeching into land and groundwater. Further, every NewerTech battery currently in production is manufactured Mercury-free. And, NewerTech’s line of Intelligent Battery Charger/Conditioners extend the useful life of Apple, NewerTech, or third party laptop batteries, reducing the number of batteries consumers need to discard.
NewerTech also proactively hosts information on its website for local disposal options available to technology users. Information on the no-cost NewerTech recycling program as well as local disposal options can be found here.
