Close the loop on recycling
X-Met's groundbreaking technology recovers metal in a cost-effective and environmentally conscious way.
OUR MISSION
WHO WE ARE
UNTAPPED POTENTIAL
27 MILLION
tons of metal waste are produced every year. Currently, only 34% of that waste can be reasonably recovered.
X-MET BELIEVES
98% of metal waste can be cleanly recovered.
UNRECOVERABLE
Precious and semi-precious metals that are difficult to recycle usually head straight to landfill.
X-MET'S FOCUS
is on recovering those metals with a cost-efficient method that makes fiscal sense to implement.
CURRENT METHODS
use smelting and acid-based extraction to recycle metal. This process is environmentally destructive.
X-MET'S RADICAL TECH
uses nondestructive reagents to recycle metal. There are no acids, no cyanides, and no need to burn. X-Met is committed to creating a positive environmental imact.
"We believe that this is disruptive. It's a completely different chemistry. It takes a lot of the energy equation out of a lot of the emissions."
—Kevin Hubert, C.E.O. and cofounder of X-Met
