EXCELLENCE IN RECYCLING

Umicore Precious Metals Refining operates as one of the world's largest precious metals recycling facility.

This business unit of Umicore offers eco-efficient recycling and refining services for precious metal bearing materials such as by-products from other non-ferrous industries (e.g. drosses, mattes, speiss, anode slimes), consumer and industrial recyclable products (e.g. electronic scrap, spent auto catalysts , spent industrial catalysts, sweeps & bullions).

We recover and sell precious metals (silver, gold, platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium, ruthenium), special metals (indium, selenium, tellurium), secondary metals (antimony, tin, bismuth, arsenic) and base metals (lead, copper, nickel). We put them back in the cycle for a better life.
