Lead Recycling

Although there are some other recyclers who could collect waste batteries from the market, TMI is the only certified recycler by government that is qualified to collect the waste lead acid batteries from battery manufacturers in Taiwan. TMI takes a variety of reuse and recycling programs throughout its operations. Waste reduction programs and appropriate residuals management systems are also employed. All the elements of batteries are recycled and re-used by manufacturing companies, which reduces the impact on the environment. TMI’s mission is to recover and recycle lead materials and residual materials that offer economic potential. Through its activities and mission, the company promotes the concept of sustainable development.

Any business or individual can bring their used batteries to TMI facility and make sure that they will be recycled in the most environmentally responsible way. Through this program and our other efforts, we recycle more than a third of Taiwan’s domestic batteries generated each year. This recycling helps reducing the hazardous waste in our environment.

Quality

We continue to demand even more stringent quality to compete in the worldwide marketplace. In order to remain a top supplier, TMI maintains high quality standards and has achieved not only ISO 9001: 2000 certification. These certifications verify that our products and personnel meet the highest quality standards.
TMI also achieved IISO 14001:2004 certification. The ISO 14001 program is consistent with the TMI initiative to constantly improve the quality of our products and services, in addition to our environmental and operational performance.
TMI does much more than manufacturing lead products. We believe in working as partners with customers to ensure quality, service, consistency and reliability of supply. Quality is the achievement of high standards to reflect our commitment to meeting each of our customers’ requirements.
