Six criteria applied to every material
Before any route is agreed, we apply these lenses to understand what you have and where it can go.
Material type
Identify the category, alloy or polymer composition.
Purity & quality
Review contamination levels and overall material quality.
Quantity
Understand volume available and consistency of supply.
Condition
Review physical condition and packaging requirements.
Recovery potential
Evaluate which processing route extracts the most value.
Logistics & pickup
Confirm movement requirements and collection coordination.
Why proper classification matters
Getting the grade right determines value, safety and what the material can become.
Better value recovery
Understanding the grade determines what your material is worth and which buyer it can reach.
Smoother processing
Correctly sorted materials move through processing without hold-ups or reclassification.
Safer handling
Knowing the material type ensures the right handling steps are in place from collection onwards.
The right processing route
Each material type connects to a specific set of downstream options — classification opens those doors.
Clear documentation
An agreed grade supports accurate records, compliance and transparent commercial terms.

Materials & Operations
Yes. No material is resold without passing through our assessment and processing workflow. Every lot is weighed, visually inspected, and graded at our facility before it is listed for resale. This is what allows us to give buyers reliable grade descriptions — and it is what makes generators' quotes accurate and defensible.
