Colt Refining and Recycling

Colt Refining, Colt Recycling, and Colt Recycling Southeast (COLT) provide a fully integrated solution for electronic scrap, precious metal refining and metal commodity trading. We purchase scrap metal at all levels, providing secure and environmental solutions to business, government and industry. Colt Refining, Inc. is headquartered in a 50,000 square foot secure facility in Merrimack, New Hampshire. This facility equipped to safeguard our people and the environment, include balers, ball mills, hammer mills, granulators, sifters, blenders, processing ovens, melting furnaces interfaced with after-burners, baghouses and dust collectors. Our facility also has the ability to chemically strip precious metals from substrates through the use of three strip lines with rotary cages. Our ultramodern assay laboratory employ combinations of traditional fire assay, wet chemical analysis, atomic absorption spectrophotometry, and other sophisticated instrumentation techniques to determine precise precious metal content. Colt Recycling LLC operates in a combined 100,000 square foot in two facilities located in Hudson and Merrimack, New Hampshire. Our unique processing system selectively dismantles E-Scrap, introducing sub-assemblies into our custom designed shred and separation equipment. The by-products from the system are reduced to ½ inch sized particles that are used as raw material feedstock supplied to various aluminum mills, copper mills, smelters or our Merrimack refining operations. Our asset recovery services compliment our recycling capabilities. Equipment received for asset recovery flows through a process of serialized tracking, inventory, testing, and remarketing. This can include component level and/or complete systems. Products that are not re-marketable are reintroduced into our recycling system. In 2016, COLT expanded it's recycling footprint to a 100,000 square foot facility located in Hickory, North Carolina.
