recycling process

Our solar panel recycling process delivers exceptional environmental and economic outcomes with a 95% material recovery rate. This industry-leading performance ensures maximum value extraction from end-of-life solar panels while minimizing waste sent to landfill.

  • Step 1: Remove aluminum frames and electrical junction boxes from panels
  • Step 2: De-laminate glass from the panel structure
  • Step 3: Shred de-laminated glass panels to separate and recover valuable materials

This approach ensures safe handling of CdTe and CIGS solar cells containing toxic cadmium and lead-containing solder components. The recovered materials including semiconductor components, tempered glass, aluminum frames, and metals re-enter the manufacturing supply chain, supporting circular economy principles.
