FUNDAMETZ S.A. was born out of the merger of two companies: OXIDEPLO, dedicated to the production of Lead Oxide for lead acid battery manufacturers and other industries, and BERA ECUADOR, a non ferrous metal smelter.  Both were giving over 15 years of experience and customers from their respective turfs.  In 2004, both companies merged in one under the name of FUNDAMETZ S.A.
FUNDAMETZ S.A. was born with a clear environmental and international focus.  Our main reason to exist relies on recovering metals that if, otherwise were disposed or recover in an unappropriate fashion, may pollute our environment.
FUNDAMETZ S.A. is the only ecuadorian company that has an Environmental Certificate that enables us to process and recover used lead-acid batteries.  The Very illustrious Municipality of Guayaquil performs periodic environmental  audits monitoring the air, the soil and the water to guarantee that pollution does not take place in our processes of production.
To be able to work under  the most strict international standards, we have implemented a system of total quality and constant improvement that allows us to control each of the processes involved in our operations.
Currently, our products are sold in Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Brazil, The Caribeean, Spain and Singapore.
