PGM recycling for Automotive & Aearospace industries
Many elements in Automotive and Aerospace are recycled, however, there is till room for improvement. Circle PGM contributes by going that extra mile.
Introduction
What we do
Where function pushes quality and the use of precious metals to the ever raising limit, recovery and reuse becomes more imminent. Components become more complex, precious metals used more efficiently, therefore recovery technology cannot stand still. Circle PGM pushes new recovery developments to ensure the maximum recovery is made.
Benefits
No part left behind, every gram counts.
Countless parts in the Automotive and Aerospace are either containing or coated with precious metals. It is the sum of small numbers that makes the impact. At Circle PGM we’re counting small to go big. Together with the Automotive and Aerospace industry, we’re making a sustainability impact.
Regain value
Even though it might sometimes seem like a lot of effort to extract the precious metals from the various parts, it always makes sense to do so. Sustainability wise and economically. Doing so will impact your business in various positive ways.
Ensure environmental compliance
Our approach is fully aligned with European environmental standards — helping you stay ahead of regulatory requirements while lowering your operational impact and reducing your CO₂ footprint.
Gain transparency and control
With real-time tracking, full documentation, and verified PGM content analysis, you get a clear, honest and transparent insight into the value and outcome of every batch – making planning, reporting, and scaling easier than ever.

Collect
Through advanced refining techniques, recovered residue is transformed into high-quality precious metals like iridium and ruthenium, ensuring maximum recovery and minimal waste.

Every material stream is unique and deserves the best care possible in order to recover the most metals.
View moreRefine
Through advanced refining techniques, “waste” is transformed into high-quality precious metals to find their way back as a catalyst or other precious metal product.

Optional
Opt for a closed-loop system where refined metals are returned as a product, or deposited into your metal account. Enabling you to reuse your metals time and time again. Increasing your sustainability impact and lowering your costs.

Precious metal products.
Through our unique recovery process, and then refining, spent precious metal residues are transformed into high-purity compounds- such as, chlorides, salts, wire and many other forms and shapes. These reclaimed materials can be made to your specification and returned to you, ready for reuse in your various applications.
Circular Economy
Closed-loop system
A closed-loop system is the key to sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective operations. By continuously recycling and reusing materials, you reduce waste, lower emissions, and minimize reliance on newly mined resources. This not only helps you meet environmental regulations, but also strengthens your business in reaching its sustainability targets.
Circularity, in its purest form, means returning a product to its original state — as it was. That’s the essence of a true closed-loop system. And that is exactly what we have created — a one-stop shop for full-circle precious metal recovery and supply.
Looking for advise about transitioning to a closed loop system? We are happy to offer our expertise.

+31 (0) 85 018 9964How does Circle PGM handle logistics?
Circle PGM works with long term logistics partners across the globe. This ensures trustworthy and secure shipments
What materials can Circle PGM recover?
We handle a wide variety of materials containing precious metals (PGMs) in all shapes and sizes. Our specialty lies in iridium and ruthenium coated materials, which we process using our unique, chemical-free method.
Is Circle PGM compliant with European environmental regulations?
Yes, Circle PGM is compliant with European environmental regulations. Our innovative, chemical-free recovery process aligns with the standards for sustainability, safety, and environmental protection. We continue to improve on a daily basis.
What materials can be recovered and refined?
If your material contains precious metals, recovery is possible, even from very low concentrations. Whether it involves coated materials, solids, liquids, hazardous substances, organics, catalysts, or any other form shape or size, our team is here to assist you. Feel free to get in touch with us!
What’s the difference between destructive and non-destructive coating removal?
Destructive coating removal breaks down both the coating and the substrate, making the substrate unusable. Non-destructive removal, however, separates the coating while preserving the substrate, allowing it to be reused. At Circle PGM, we specialize in non-destructive, chemical-free method to recover precious metals sustainably
