Recycling

Highly responsible recycling is of great importance to us, and has been for centuries. We have accepted our customers’ scrap for appropriate and environmentally responsible disposal for a long time, and in an era of increasing demand for raw materials, scarce resources and increasingly stringent environmental requirements, we aim to set an example. The list of substances that we can feed back into the raw-material cycle using complete recycling methods with virtually no waste is continuing to grow. This is good for the environment and closes product life cycles while also making good business sense.

Purchase of metals & scrap

Metals and scrap containing tin, lead and antimony are valuable raw materials that can be re-used in an optimal manner with the necessary expertise and technologies. This requires a sustainable complete recycling concept, expertise and a well-trained team. We use standardised and calibrated laboratory and analysis technology to create precise material analyses based on boiler or furnace samples. We will buy your scrap and metals under attractive conditions based on the day’s official LME market listings.

Voluntary return of used solders

For us, modern material management is far from being a one-way street: Taking back residual material or waste and treating it in an environmentally responsible way are inextricably linked. Sustainable use cycles cannot work any other way. We have worked hard over a long period of time in order to gain our excellent reputation in this area too, with contributing factors including our long-standing expertise in taking back our customers’ used solders and process waste.

Disposal advice

In the field of tin and lead smelting, environmentally responsible disposal solutions are essential, and need to be implemented not only in compliance with the legal requirements, but also in way that helps develop innovative and sustainable concepts. Ensuring verifiably closed cycles for disposal and recycling within Germany is the only way of guaranteeing the safe handling of production residue and waste containing tin and lead, without risking any potential environmental hazards as a result of the transfer of waste abroad with compulsory reporting. At the same time, keeping recycling rates as high as possible and transporting distances short helps to conserve valuable resources and the environment, which also makes sense not least from an economic perspective. Professional disposal and compliance advice is crucial in order to achieve this.
