Ecobat is a Dallas-headquartered resource recovery and production company that recycles lead batteries and produces lead and lead alloys. Its closed-loop operations recover and repurpose lead, while its Solutions business has developed lead-battery materials and recycling technologies. Ecobat says its story spans seven centuries, from a 14th-century German smelter to an international network; it has since described itself as a focused North American platform following divestitures of European operations.
