How to expand your business with buying catalysts?

If you have a car repair shop, you know the parts well or you have experience in the automotive industry, then it is definitely worth considering expanding the current activity by buying catalysts. This process from the formal side is not complicated and will allow your company to spread its wings and increase profits significantly.

 

About why it was so profitable we wrote, among others in the article “Why catalysts are so valuable“. In short – used catalysts are still extremely valuable for the sake of using precious metals like platinum, palladium or rhodium in their production (you can check their value in our “Courses” tab). The most expensive models, at the moment, are worth over PLN 9,000! You can find the catalysts not only in passenger cars, but also in trucks, buses, and even in various machines with internal combustion – construction, mining or agricultural.

How to go about it? Here’s what you should do step by step:

  1. Select a place for waste disposal – before choosing a specific storage place for used catalysts, it is worth consulting in the Department of Environmental Protection. In response, we will receive the criteria that we must meet in order to be able to legally buy and store used catalysts.
  2. Obtain appropriate permits – everything should start with obtaining permission to collect waste with the codes 16 08 01 and 16 08 03. The above documents will be dealt with without problems in the Department of Environmental Protection in the City Hall in the place of residence.
  3. Obtain an entry to BDO, i.e. register of entities introducing products, products in packaging and waste management, and thus a permit for transport. It is worth considering a permit for transporting waste, thanks to which you will be able to expand your offer by collecting catalysts from the customer. The basis for entry is submission by the entity of the application, whose specimen is set out in Annexes 1 and 2 to the Regulation of the Minister of the Environment of 13 December 2018 regarding the patterns of the registration form […] (Journal of Laws, item 2528). The application form can be found on the following website: https://bdo.mos.gov.pl/web/wnioski-do-pobrania The application can also be downloaded at the Marshal’s Office in its proper location and submitted in paper form as well as electronically.
  4. Update in CEIDG, ie the Central Business Register, its PKD code, expanding it with code 38.11.Z, under which collects waste other than hazardous.
  5. Find the right catalyst recipient – this is really the most important point of the whole plan. The most important one, because this choice determines to a large extent whether your purchase will succeed! What is worth paying attention to when selecting the recipient, i.e. a larger entity that will not only buy the collected goods from you, but also guarantee that everything will be subjected to the recycling process, are several important aspects:
  • Legal action – it is important that your supplier has all the necessary permits, including permission to process waste code 16 08 01 and 16 08 03 and, of course, he was in the BDO Base;
  • Payment for the delivered goods on the same day – it is extremely important, because it ensures the security of transactions, as well as financial liquidity, thanks to which you can start the repurchase of subsequent catalysts on the same day. You leave home with money and do not worry when the transfer will come to you;
  • It has the most modern technology – it has its own laboratory equipped with renowned spectrometers – means for measuring the content of precious metals in the delivered material. The better equipment and more experienced staff, the greater is your confidence that the calculation you received for the product is favorable for you;
  • Own transport – if you do not have the possibility to transport catalysts, you should direct the recipients who provide their own means of transport.
  • Valuation of catalysts according to clear and overt principles – has an extensive price list with several thousand models, designed based on the analysis of individual catalysts in terms of platinum, palladium and rhodium content.
  • It provides tools for effective work and shares knowledge – the beginnings in any business are difficult. Especially in the recycling industry, where competition is still growing, we may have trouble finding a market place and succeeding. Substantive help in the first months of operation is indispensable if we do not want to suffer losses. Professional groups provide support at every stage of cooperation – they provide tools for reliable valuation of used catalysts, serve their experience in dealing with formal issues, help in choosing the right equipment for work
