Whether you're a small muffler shop, auto recycling operation, or an automotive OEM looking to secure platinum group metals through a closed loop system, we have the expertise and experience to meet your needs and exceed your expectations.

Ceramic Converter Recycling

Our company's ceramic catalytic converter recycling process involves the extraction of valuable precious metals such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium from the ceramic monolith. The ceramic is first broken down and then treated to separate and refine the metals, resulting in high-quality recycled materials for reuse in various industries.

Toll Refining

Our Large Lot Sampling service offers custom tailored terms to fit your individual needs, making it easy for you to maximize your time and efforts. We remove the hassle and complexity of material sorting and inventory, allowing you to focus on your business. Our services are available for lots as small as 250 pieces.

Foil Converter Recycling

At our company, we recognize that metal foils are a valuable part of the catalytic converter recycling stream, and we welcome them with open arms. Despite foil converters being less prevalent than their ceramic counterparts, we have the expertise to properly evaluate each piece and offer competitive pricing based on either weight or piece.

Laboratory Analytical

Our laboratory analytical service can provide accurate market value for catalytic converters not listed in our database. We analyze the precious metal content and will share the results with all our customers through our mobile app. Simply provide us with the unit and we'll take care of the rest.

O2 Sensor Recycling

We recognize the value of recycling every part of the exhaust system, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant. That's why we provide a specialized O2 sensor recycling that offers competitive pricing for these often-forgotten parts. We handle small quantities as well as large volumes, ensuring that our customers receive the most value for their materials.

Precision Matters

Our In-House Lab Delivers Accurate Values for Your Catalytic Converters.

Equipped with latest state-of-the-art analytical technology, we take great pride in our in-house laboratory. Unlike many other converter recyclers that use just a single analytical method, we use both XRF (X-ray fluorescence) and ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectroscopy) to ensure a higher level of precision.

With our in-house lab, we have the ability to quickly and accurately determine the value of each converter, providing our customers with the best possible pricing. In addition to providing precise values for individual converters, our in-house lab is integral to our ability to toll refine bulk quantities of converters, while providing unparalleled accuracy in the assessment of each lot's value.
