Catalytic Converters
Catalytic Converter Recycling
Automotive and industrial catalytic converters contain platinum, palladium and rhodium coated onto a ceramic or metal honeycomb. We buy whole converters, loose ceramic and decanned material from scrap yards, dismantlers, exhaust shops and fleet operators.
Converter prices move with platinum, palladium and rhodium markets, so we confirm the price when the material is inspected.
Typical sources: Scrap yards, auto dismantlers, exhaust and repair shops, fleet operators and generator service companies.
