AFI July Site Tour - EcoCycle
EcoCycle Group is an Australian-owned leader in resource recovery, delivering end-to-end circular solutions across complex and regulated material streams. Through its network of specialist businesses - including EcoBatt, Recycal, Castings Tasmania and ACL Metal Powders - the Group safely collects, processes and returns valuable materials back into productive use.
Circular Economy in Action
This tour provides a clear, practical example of the circular economy at work—moving beyond traditional “take, make, dispose” models to systems where materials are continuously recovered, reused and remanufactured.
Battery recycling sits at the forefront of this shift. End‑of‑life batteries contain high-value materials such as nickel, cobalt, lithium, copper and steel. Rather than being lost to landfill or exported, EcoBatt’s advanced processing ensures these resources are recovered onshore and fed back into Australia’s manufacturing ecosystem.
This creates a closed-loop pathway:
Products reach end-of-life (e.g. batteries, electronics)
Materials are safely collected and processed
Metals are recovered via recycling streams (Recycal)
Reprocessed into new products through foundries and powder producers (Castings Tasmania, ACL Metal Powders)
Returned to market as high-value engineered components
Join the Australian Foundry Institute Victoria contingent on an exclusive tour of EcoCycle Group’s EcoBatt battery recycling facility, showcasing cutting‑edge, onshore solutions for one of the fastest-growing waste streams - batteries.
