Operational Excellence: The ECMS sites in Seneca, SC, Caldwell, TX and Hofors, Sweden allow us and our customers to minimize freight costs when shipping material in and out. ECMS’ global capabilities include petrochemical, petroleum and automotive catalyst refining as well as precious metal chemicals manufacturing. Regardless of material type, ECMS’ refining paths can take catalyst material from the point of receipt all the way through our refinery located in Seneca, SC. This model allows us to take in material that has constituents outside of operating limits for the industry traditionally.

Rigorous testing protocols, highly skilled professionals, and advanced instrumentation, allow our lab to deliver results that not only meet regulatory requirements but also surpass customer expectations.

Sustainability Focus: Our emphasis on metal recovery is rooted in the belief that reusing and recycling precious metals is not only an eco-conscious choice but also an economically sound decision. We provide our clients with a sustainable alternative to sourcing new precious metals, offering a more cost-effective solution that aligns with responsible business practices. By focusing on efficient metal recovery processes, we help our clients reduce their reliance on newly mined resources, contributing to a circular economy. This not only conserves valuable natural resources but also minimizes the environmental impact associated with traditional mining and extraction activities.
