LYON STATION, Pa., Dec. 6, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- East Penn is pleased to announce that the company's full line of Transportation batteries has been validated by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) for an allocation of 98% recycled material, the highest UL Recycled Content Validation for batteries in the world.
