Lead is a heavy and soft metal that has been used for centuries, including in building materials, pipes and batteries. Although durable in use, lead can be harmful to humans and the environment when it ends up in the waste. Therefore, lead recycling is not only economically interesting, but also of great importance for health and sustainability.
Lead is easily deformed and has a distinctive dull gray color. It is relatively heavy and was once widely used in water pipes, roofing and stained glass windows. Today, it is mostly used in batteries, cable sheathing and radiation shielding applications.
Lead is present in more places than you think. Common sources are:
Plumbing and roofing at old homes
Automotive batteries and industrial batteries
Stained glass and old window frames
Cable sheathing and technical installations
We weigh your metals on site and calculate the fee based on current metal prices. So you always know where you stand.
You can drop by our Utrecht location without an appointment. We will help you immediately with unloading and handling.
By recycling your metals, you contribute to the reuse of raw materials and avoid unnecessary waste. Good for the environment as well as your wallet.
In recycling, lead is carefully collected and separated from other materials. It is then remelted and purified. The recycled lead can be reused in batteries, building materials or as a protective material against radiation. Because lead can be reprocessed without loss of quality, it remains a valuable raw material.
The responsible disposal of lead prevents this heavy metal from entering the environment. This prevents soil and water pollution and preserves valuable raw materials. Every kilo of lead that is reused means energy savings and a contribution to a circular economy.
Whether it's roofing, batteries or stained glass: old lead retains its value. By returning lead separately, you ensure safe processing and sustainable repurposing.
Have questions about what you can turn in or how much it's worth? Feel free to contact us or drive by directly.
On our weighbridge or with a smaller scale, we determine the weight and type of metal.
You will be paid the amount immediately in cash or by bank, whichever you prefer.
