Quick Facts on Catalytic Converters

Globally, the catalytic converter recycling market was valued at around USD 5.2 billion in 2024 and is forecast to nearly double, reaching about USD 9.8 billion by 2033.
Recycling catalytic converters plays a crucial role in the supply of platinum group metals (PGMs). It’s estimated that 30–40% of the global PGM supply comes from recycled converters.
Catalytic converters contain precious metals such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium, which are extracted during recycling. Large recycling operations recover significant amounts of these metals annually, reducing the need for new mining.
