RECYCLING STRATEGIES
FOR CREMATORIA

We place great emphasis on shaping the cycle of sustainability with precision and care. Our comprehensive recycling process for residual metals after cremation begins with the free and careful provision of special containers for our partners in crematoria and ends with the detailed analysis and remuneration to the crematorium for the recycled materials.

1. Provision of collection containers
To enable seamless collection of residual metals after cremation, we provide crematoria with tailor‑made containers free of charge. These are specifically designed for safe collection and efficient transport and flexibly adapt to the individual needs of the facilities.

2. Collection and safe transport
At set intervals, we exchange the filled containers and transport the collected metals safely to our recycling centres across Europe using our own vehicles.

3. Pre‑treatment and precise sorting
Impurities are carefully removed before the metals are processed using modern sorting technology.

4. Separation of valuable metals
After sorting, precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum and palladium are melted down and extracted. Using highly precise methods, we ensure that every metal is processed with the utmost care and efficiency.

5. Comprehensive analysis and strict quality control
Before the metals are returned to the material cycle, we conduct a detailed analysis. Our team uses state‑of‑the‑art analysis techniques to verify the quality of the recycled metals and ensure the highest standards.

6. Transparent remuneration for crematoria
After completion of the analysis, our partner crematoria receive a comprehensive overview of the recycled metals and their market value. Transparency and hedging in billing are attractive options for you to optimise your remuneration quota.

7. Return to the production cycle
By returning the materials to the production cycle, we reduce the demand for newly mined raw materials and thus promote the sustainable use of natural resources.

At CRONIMET CREMETAL, we rely on comprehensive sustainability and strict environmental protection measures to ensure that filter dusts from crematoria are disposed of safely and in an environmentally sound manner. Through our optimal process, we minimise potential environmental impacts and actively contribute to resource conservation.

1. Environmentally sound treatment
The environmentally sound disposal takes place in compliance with all relevant environmental regulations. The collected filter dusts are taken to specially designated underground landfills designed for the safe reception and storage of such materials.

2. Our contribution to environmental protection
Our procedures for the disposal of filter dusts make a significant contribution to environmental protection. Through the targeted use of environmentally friendly technologies and compliance with the strictest guidelines, we minimise the risk of potential environmental impacts.

3. Full‑service disposal for crematoria
To provide our partners in crematoria with a comprehensive service, we supply specialised drums, liners and pallets. These materials are optimally suited to the safe handling and disposal of filter dusts. Our full‑service approach means that we design the entire disposal process seamlessly and efficiently – from collection to final disposal.
