Reclaiming precious metals from e-waste – SUSTAINABLY.

Revolutionary, high quality, high yield sustainable copper concentrate – while mitigating harmful emissions.

Igneo transforms e-wastefrom OEMs, business, civic amenity sites and homes intoa homogeneous, easy to handle, easy to consume, sustainable copper concentrate – rich in the copper, gold, palladium, and silver on which the future is built.

Processing power is growing exponentially. and so is e-waste.

Technological progress, means shorter device lifecycles and growing e-waste. Meanwhile, demand for the precious metals required for new-generation smartphones, tablets and servers is greater than ever.

Igneo closes the loop, enabling the metamorphosis from old technology to new. Efficiently. Cleanly. Sustainably.
