Educate Children by Recycling Your Batteries at The Model Shop Outlets – Collaboration with Greenpak & Hospice
We’re excited to announce that we are now accepting battery recycling from all The Model Shop outlets across Malta and Gozo. Recycling your batteries is now easier than ever. This initiative supports not only proper waste management but also the vital work of Hospice Malta. Drop all of your batteries at any of our outlets located in Iklin, Paola, Luqa, Zejtun, Ibrag, St. Paul’s Bay, Bay Street, The Plaza, and Gozo. On your next visit, simply dispose of your used batteries in the allocated bins to directly support the local environment as well as Hospice Malta.
Why Recycling Batteries Matters
Batteries contain metals and chemicals that could be harmful if not properly disposed of. Recycling helps prevent hazardous waste from ending up in our landfills and facilitates the recovery of valuable materials, including metals like lead, cadmium, zinc, and manganese, as well as plastics and other substances. Proper disposal of batteries reduces the release of harmful chemicals into our environment, conserves natural resources by limiting the need for new raw materials, and decreases landfill waste. This effort supports community health and aids Hospice Malta. The recycling of these materials generates funds that help provide essential care to patients with life-limiting conditions, thus contributing to the well-being of our community.
Easy to Recycle Batteries and Teach Children Why It’s Important!
Encourage recycling at home by creating a dedicated spot to collect used batteries from toys, remotes, and other battery-operated devices. This practice teaches children the importance of recycling and makes it a part of your family’s routine. When the collection spot is full, visit one of The Model Shop outlets together, where you and your child can dispose of the batteries. This activity is not only simple but also educational, highlighting the importance of responsible recycling.

This recycling initiative reflects The Model Shop’s commitment to environmental protection, our support for meaningful causes, and educating young minds.
