GREENTOOL

Efficient recycling and cobalt reduction in hard metal. Recycling processes for hard metal tools and manufacturing of alternatives with lower cobalt content.

Potential Market

Manufacturers of cutting and wear tools for metal, wood, and other materials. Stamping and machining industry seeking more sustainable alloys. Recycling and metal recovery companies optimizing the purity of recycled powder. Researchers and developers of new materials in metallurgy and powder metallurgy.

Greentool develops advanced technologies for the recycling of hard metal (HM) and the reduction of cobalt use in its compositions. This innovative approach enables the manufacturing of more sustainable cutting and wear tools, reducing dependency on critical raw materials controlled by foreign markets.

  • More efficient and sustainable recycling: lower environmental footprint and reduced energy consumption.
  • Higher purity of recycled materials, matching the performance of original products.
  • Reduction of cobalt in HM alloys by up to 80%, decreasing reliance on unstable suppliers.
  • Commitment to the circular economy, promoting more responsible processes.
