PM Recovery

Lately I’ve become fascinated by industrial recycling for spent catalysts and non-​ferrous metals. In many ways, I think they deserve more «green» credit, especially during this time of green-​washing where every corporation sings its own praises for some green initiative they claim to have implemented, when in actual fact the companies they hire behind the scenes to make them look good are the true green heroes.
Since 1978, PM Recovery, Inc has been a leading direct processor of scrap metals and spent catalysts. The company specializes in reducing the environmental liability and footprint of other industrial behemoths, such as Exxon-​Mobil. These are the kinds of behind-​the-​scenes companies that are the true «green» heroes of today.
Specializing in tungsten carbide, cobalt, vanadium, nickel and molybdenum, these guys are basically a logistics company that takes part in every aspect of the industrial catalyst and metals recycling process. In other words, they aren’t brokers but actual participants in the systems of industrial recycling, with actual physical secondary materials recovery plants.
On the catalyst side, you’ve got industries like aerospace, electronic, magnet production, medical, mining, automotive and other applications. And on the metals side, you’ve got industries like oil and petroleum, pharmaceutical and industrial gases. And PM Recovery does it all.
Mark Spano, a former college football star in Harrison, New York, founded the company in 1978, and they’ve taken recycling, IMHO, to another level.
