ResourcesIndustry Information
The use of lead in the industry has changed dramatically in recent years. Approx 85% of lead is used in the manufacturing of batteries, whereas the old line consumption of lead in fuel, ammunition and some phases of construction has declined. Although the use of lead sheet/plate and brick for shielding in radiation applications will continue to remain very strong particularly in the field of medical research. Environmentally speaking, lead is over 98% recyclable.
