Aerospace

Betts Envirometal is particularly active in the Aerospace industry, as this sector typically creates an array of wastes with relatively high residual values. Due to the chemical properties of certain precious metals (eg very high electrical conductivity of silver or malleability and inert nature of gold), they are often utilised in high-performance aerospace components. With our refining heritage, Betts Envirometal specialises in extracting maximum values from such wastes for the benefit of our customers.

Betts Envirometal can deal with a wide range of aerospace waste, such as:

  • Brazing alloys
  • Redundant or faulty components or wiring with precious metal content
  • X-ray films used in non-destructive testing  
  • Confidential storage and records management
  • PCBs and plated materials
