Introduction

What we do

We help pharmaceutical and medical manufacturers reclaim more value from precious metal-containing materials. From spent catalysts and coated components to residues from lab processes and fine chemicals, valuable PGMs are often overlooked. Aimgreen helps turn these streams into measurable returns, reducing material losses, boosting operational efficiency, and supporting your sustainability and compliance objectives.

Products

Precious metal products.

Using our advanced recovery and refining process, used precious metal coatings are converted into high-purity compounds, including iridium chlorides (IrCl) and ruthenium chloride (RuCl). These reclaimed materials can be customized to your specifications and returned ready for reuse in your coating applications.

Ir Sponge

If you’d like to receive your iridium back in sponge form for your process, we can supply it according to your specifications.

Ru sponge

Would you like to receive your ruthenium in sponge form? We can provide it tailored to your requirements.

Pt catalyst

If you need a specific platinum catalyst, just let us know—we’ll be happy to assist.

Pd catalyst

Palladium catalysts can be supplied in various forms. Contact us, and we’ll be glad to assist.

Au/Ag ingots / granules

Are you using ingots or granules in your process? Share your specifications with us, and we’ll provide them accordingly.

Circular Economy

Closed-loop system

A closed-loop approach is essential for sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective operations. By constantly recycling and reusing materials, you cut waste, reduce emissions, and rely less on newly mined resources. This supports compliance with environmental regulations while helping your business achieve its sustainability goals.

True circularity means restoring a product to its original form — that’s the core of a genuine closed-loop system. At Aimgreen, we’ve built exactly that: a complete solution for full-circle precious metal recovery and supply.

Faqs

Have questions? We’re here to help.

Aimgreen collaborates with long-term logistics partners worldwide ensuring secure and reliable shipments.

We process a wide range of materials containing precious metals (PGMs) in various forms and sizes. Our expertise focuses on iridium and ruthenium-coated materials which we treat using our exclusive, chemical-free method.

Yes, Aimgreen adheres to European environmental regulations. Our innovative, chemical-free recovery techniques meet the highest standards for sustainability safety and environmental protection. We continuously refine and improve our processes.

Any material containing precious metals can be recovered even at very low concentrations. Whether it is coated materials solids liquids hazardous substances organics or catalysts of any form or size our team is ready to assist. Contact us to learn more.

Destructive removal damages both the coating and the underlying substrate rendering it unusable. Non-destructive removal separates the coating while preserving the substrate so it can be reused. At Aimgreen we specialize in a non-destructive chemical-free approach to recover precious metals sustainably.

Teamwork is the key to growth

At Aimgreen, we believe real progress comes from working together. Strong collaboration takes you further than going it alone, and only by combining efforts can we achieve lasting success in circularity.
