Battery Recycling Conference & Expo Frankfurt

The Battery Recycling Conference & Expo is a globally recognized trade fair accompanied by a high-level conference, dedicated to battery recycling and the recovery of critical raw materials. At its core are innovation, sustainability, and the principles of the circular economy. Held annually at Messe Frankfurt—one of Europe’s premier exhibition centers in the heart of Frankfurt am Main—the event brings together leading stakeholders in battery and recycling technology on a central, international platform.

The event is organized by Trans-World Events Ltd., a globally active company specializing in forward-thinking industrial events. Over the years, Battery Recycling Conference & Expo has become a key meeting point for the global battery industry. Its mission is to support the development of sustainable supply chains and a functioning circular economy for end-of-life batteries by showcasing the latest technologies, scientific advances, and industrial solutions.

Key topics include the recycling of lithium-ion batteries, strategies for repurposing spent batteries, and methods for recovering critical raw materials such as lithium, cobalt, and nickel. The event also explores technological innovations in the separation, processing, and reuse of battery components. Attendees gain in-depth insights into research, development, and industrial applications—from laboratory scale to full-scale production.

Exhibitors represent the entire value chain of the battery industry: from battery manufacturers and specialized recycling firms to raw material suppliers, machine builders, technology providers, and academic institutions. The professional audience consists of decision-makers and experts from industry, research, policy, and environmental sectors—all with a shared interest in forming new partnerships and driving solutions for the transition to a sustainable energy economy.

The Battery Recycling Conference & Expo is part of a broader event ecosystem that includes the E-Waste World Conference & Expo, the Metal Recycling Conference & Expo, and the ITAD & Circular Electronics Conference & Expo. Together, they form an interdisciplinary platform focused on sustainable resource management and electronics recycling.

Frankfurt offers the ideal setting for this international event: a modern infrastructure, excellent global connectivity, and a dynamic economic and academic environment—particularly in environmental technologies and electromobility. As a hub of finance and innovation, Frankfurt is not only logistically advantageous but also a showcase of German excellence in sustainable technologies.

The Battery Recycling Conference & Expo thus symbolizes a transforming industry—practically oriented, globally connected, and firmly committed to shaping the future of battery recycling.

The Battery Recycling Conference & Expo in Frankfurt took place from Wednesday, 11. June to Thursday, 12. June 2025.
