We are pioneering circular economy solutions for India's end-of-life vehicle (ELV) and automotive recycling sector.
Urban PGM helps India achieve its circular economy objectives by purchasing and recycling spent catalysts to enable further catalytic converter production, making the metal market more sustainable.
We embrace the Government's Auto Shredding Policy 2021 for a structured recycling ecosystem and support India's 2070 Carbon Neutral Goals.
We believe: Sustainable Materials are Not a Choice, They're a Necessity.
India lacks a transparent and structured ecosystem for pricing and collecting catalytic converter scrap—despite its high intrinsic value. This leads to exploitation, under-collection, and informal recycling.
Improper handling leads to metal losses, pollution, and worker health risks due to dust exposure (platinum, palladium, rhodium). Catcons vary widely by car model and manufacturer, and most buyers lack knowledge of intrinsic value. This leads to undervaluation and loss for the actual seller (vehicle owner or scrap dealer). Catalytic converters fall under hazardous waste (B1130). Limited oversight on who collects, processes, or sells spent converters, This raises serious compliance, environmental, and AML risks.
We're a full-service data-backed platform that leverages global pricing benchmarks, enables real-time, location-specific value discovery, and offers guaranteed logistics & payment fulfillment.
We have catalogued thousands of individual converters and help you to value converters.
For Indian perspective we devised the Model based pricing through our proprietary Technology.
We ensure traceability of each converter so that you remain sure, where your converter has gone.
