Who We Are

Specialized expertise from material intake to recovery.

We process automotive and industrial catalysts with a clear focus on recovering platinum, palladium, and rhodium while maximizing material value and reducing waste.

Our technical facilities and experienced team ensure that every catalyst stream is handled with care and attention to detail. From material classification and preparation to sampling, assay, and recovery planning, we select the appropriate route for each material type.

Advanced processing technology allows us to recover valuable PGMs from spent catalysts efficiently. This approach supports both commercial value and responsible resource use across the recycling chain.
