How a Shenzhen collection runs
We work under a framework take-back agreement with the OEM's central sustainability or aftersales team, covering pricing methodology, EPR certificate transfer and confidential handling of prototype hardware, including destruction certificates where required.

Certificate issued
A recovery certificate with achieved percentages per metal and downstream vendor disclosure, for reporting under MIIT management measures for new energy vehicle power battery recycling.
The rules in China
MIIT management measures for new energy vehicle power battery recycling
Regulator: Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT)
China makes carmakers responsible for recovering the power batteries in the vehicles they sell, and each pack is tracked on a national traceability platform from production to recycling. MIIT publishes a list of recyclers that meet its industry standard conditions, and batteries are expected to flow to these firms for cascade use or material recovery.
- Register pack codes on the national traceability management platform
- Route retired packs through the automaker's collection network or a listed compliant recycler
- Follow national standards for dismantling, cascade use and material recovery
- Keep records that link each pack's code to its final treatment
