The world’s most sustainable and profitable recycled zinc

What we do

Zinc dusts containing $10B USD worth of zinc are generated from the steel recycling industry every year. Only half of this dust is recycled, through an outdated and expensive process. The resulting zinc has double the CO2 footprint of mined zinc.

Zincovery has developed a solution. Our innovative process significantly reduces emissions and production cost. We are working with forward thinking cleantech investors, steel mills and zinc buyers to decarbonize the zinc recycling industry.
