About Lead

Lead is primarily used in lead-acid batteries for vehicles and backup power systems. Despite environmental concerns, demand remains strong due to battery recycling.

  • Chemical symbol Pb, from Latin "plumbum"
  • ~85% of demand comes from lead-acid batteries
  • Most recycled metal — ~99% of batteries are recycled
  • China produces ~45% of world supply
  • Phased out of gasoline and paint but still essential for energy storage
