SNAM (Société Nouvelle d’Affinage des Métaux), founded in 1977, is a major player in battery recycling in Europe.

For nearly 50 years, we have been striving to close the loop on materials. Our purpose is to make a sustainable contribution to the circular economy of electric batteries.

As pioneers in battery recycling, we have successfully crossed the decades by offering innovative solutions to our customers. We have become experts in the chemistries we recycle: Nickel-Cadmium, Nickel Metal Hydride, and Lithium-ion.

Thanks to the constant evolution of our know-how and the expertise of our teams, we deploy benchmark recycling solutions in Europe:

- We perfectly close the cadmium loop by producing highly refined ingots

- We offer a high-quality lithium/cobalt/manganese/nickel mixture

- We have mastered the recycling of all lithium-ion battery technologies (NMC, LFP, LCO, NCA, LTO, LMO)

- We work with logistics partners who enable us to offer you a solution even in the French overseas departments and territories (DROM-COM).

- Whatever the condition of your battery : new, used, aging, end-of-life, or even damaged, defective or recalled (DDR) : we are ready to handle it.

As a battery manufacturer, PRO's, car dealer, and general recycler, we handle all types of batteries for a wide range of uses: electric vehicles (EV), starting, lighting, and ignition systems (SLI), portable devices such as smartphones, computers, and other tools, light transportation such as electric bikes and scooters, and industrial applications such as energy storage systems (ESS).
