Circular Economy - Recycle your foundry revert sustainably, help reduce your carbon footprint

Sustainability and recycling are prominent topics in today’s society, with a strong emphasis on green practices, as it should be! At Ross & Catherall, we have embraced this ethos for over 50 years by recycling customer revert to minimise our industry’s impact on the environment.

The investment casting industry, which we primarily serve, also adheres to this methodology by utilising internally generated foundry revert.

Recycling revert offers several significant benefits:

Environmental Impact: By recycling revert, the need for mining and refining raw materials is reduced, which in turn decreases the environmental footprint associated with these processes. This helps in conserving natural resources and reducing pollution.

Resource Efficiency: Revert contains valuable elements such as nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), tantalum (Ta), rhenium (Re), hafnium (Hf), and tungsten (W). Recycling these materials ensures that they are reused efficiently, reducing waste.

Cost Savings: Utilising revert can be more cost-effective than sourcing new raw materials. This can lead to significant savings to you.

Sustainability: Recycling revert contributes to the overall sustainability of the manufacturing process. It supports the creation of a circular economy where materials are continuously reused, reducing the need for new resources.

Quality Control: Since revert has a known composition and is “clean,” it can be reliably used to produce high-quality castings. This ensures consistency and reliability in the final products.

Reduced Carbon Footprint: By minimizing the need for new raw materials and reducing the energy required for mining and refining, recycling revert helps lower the carbon footprint of the manufacturing process.

These benefits collectively enhance the sustainability and efficiency of the industry, making recycling revert a crucial practice.

Our commitment to sustainability drives us to adopt environmentally friendly practices and reduce our carbon footprint, ensuring that our production processes are as sustainable as they are efficient.
