Complete catalysts
Complete automotive catalytic converters with a ceramic substrate.
We purchase complete ceramic catalytic converters, whole or crushed ceramics and monolith. Valuation depends on identification, condition, Pt/Pd/Rh content and current market conditions.
In ceramic catalytic converters, the active layer is carried by a porous honeycomb substrate. This is where platinum-group metals are found — primarily platinum, palladium and rhodium.
We purchase both complete catalytic converters and ceramic material itself: whole, crushed and monolith in powder form. We serve private customers, workshops, dismantling stations, traders and wholesale suppliers.
The type and condition of the material affect identification, analysis and settlement.

The previous website described the method used to establish catalogue values: a series of identically marked, undamaged catalytic converters is dismantled, ground and analysed. The averaged metal-content result helps determine a typical value for a given marking.
In practice, an individual unit may differ from the catalogue value, so the final price is confirmed individually.
See the processing workflow →The final value depends on several groups of factors — from substrate mass and condition to metal quotations and exchange rates.
The actual material weight and moisture content affect the quantity of monolith used for settlement.
The most important parameter is the concentration of platinum, palladium and rhodium in the material.
Precious-metal prices change on global markets and directly affect valuation.
Raw-material settlements are linked to USD quotations and current exchange rates.
Cracks, losses, overheating and other mechanical or thermal damage reduce the actual material value.
Mileage, fuel type and operating conditions can affect the condition and composition of the substrate.
If the marking is readable, the catalogue can help identify the model. The current price is always confirmed directly before the transaction.
Open the catalyst catalogue and search for the number shown on the casing.
