The RBRC™ Seal
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation)
Seal on the nickel-cadmium battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to recycle
the battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid by
BLACK+DECKER. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-cadmium batteries
in the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides
an environmentally conscious alternative.
RBRC in cooperation with BLACK+DECKER and other battery users, has
established programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the
collection of spent nickel-cadmium batteries. Help protect our environment
and conserve natural resources by returning the spent nickel-cadmium
battery to an authorized BLACK+DECKER service center or to your local retailer for
recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for information on where to
drop off the spent battery, or call 1-800-8-BATTERY.
