Who is responsible for recycling eBike batteries?

The legal basis for recycling is regulated at national level. Responsibility for recycling lies with the battery manufacturer. However, as soon as the eBike crosses a national border as a product, the importer automatically becomes the manufacturer. In countries outside Germany, this is the bicycle manufacturer or bicycle retailer. Because of this national aspect, Bosch eBike Systems can only provide a direct solution for battery recycling in Germany. In all other markets in which we are active, e.g. the USA, Canada, Australia or New Zealand, we provide our customers with the best possible support in this regard, and promote country-wide industry solutions if these don't yet exist in some areas.
