What types of solar panels do you recycle?
We recycle crystalline silicon and thin-film solar panels, including utility-scale arrays, residential panels, and commercial solar units, along with associated components like inverters and mounting systems.
Are your recycling services compliant with environmental regulations?
Yes, we follow R2, ISO 14001, and E-Stewards standards to ensure responsible handling of hazardous materials like cadmium, lead, and broken glass in solar modules.
Can you handle bulk panel removal for large-scale projects?
Absolutely. We support decommissioning projects for commercial and utility-scale installations with bulk removal, asset tracking, and certified downstream recycling.
What materials are recovered from the recycling process?
We recover valuable materials such as aluminum frames, silver, glass, copper wiring, and silicon for reuse in manufacturing, reducing raw material demand.
Do you provide documentation for compliance and reporting?
Yes, we issue Certificates of Recycling and detailed reports outlining the material breakdown and recycling outcomes, ideal for ESG and sustainability reporting.
