Purchase Punch Scrap Ag/Au - Price per kilo

We purchase silver (Ag) and gold (Au) plated punching scrap generated from industrial and artisanal processes, in all forms: cutting scrap, punching residues, production rejects and metal waste containing silver or gold plating.

The price depends on the actual recoverable precious metal content after processing. The value may vary according to the type of base metal, the plating thickness, the exact alloy composition and the level of contamination of the material.

We also purchase materials originating from various plating processes, including both silver-plated and gold-plated waste, when analysis allows for optimal metallurgical recovery.

What is silver or gold plated punching scrap?

Silver or gold plated punching scrap consists of industrial by-products generated during cutting, stamping and punching operations of plated metal components. Although the precious metal content per item is limited, the cumulative concentration enables economically and environmentally viable recovery.

Where is this scrap generated?

Silver- or gold-plated punching scrap mainly originates from industrial waste generated in the following sectors:

• Jewellery and goldsmith workshops;
• Metal processing and manufacturing industries;
• Manufacturers of plated technical and decorative components;
• Production rejects and punching scrap from automated lines.

By recycling your silver or gold plated punching scrap, you contribute to reducing production costs, improving margins and adopting an environmentally responsible approach. Metalcash analyses your silver-plated (Ag) or gold-plated (Au) scrap and provides a tailored purchase evaluation at the best price per kilogram, based on the actual precious metal content.
