Purchase Germanium - Price per kilo

We purchase germanium in pure or alloyed form in all configurations: germanium ingots, germanium powder, machining residues, technical components containing germanium and germanium oxides (GeO₂).

The listed price corresponds to germanium with 99.99% purity. Pricing may vary depending on the purity, form and presence of impurities or alloys.

We also buy materials from germanium-based alloys including germanium-gallium (Ga-Ge), germanium-silicon (Si-Ge), germanium-tin (Ge-Sn) and other semiconductor materials used in infrared optics and advanced electronics.

For quantities above 100 kg, please contact us for a personalised price offer.

What is germanium?

Germanium is a rare and strategic metalloid highly valued for its optical and electronic performance. It is widely used in fibre optics, high-efficiency solar cells, infrared detectors and advanced semiconductor applications.

Where is germanium found?

Germanium mainly comes from industrial residues and by-products from high-tech industries:

• Production waste from fibre optics and infrared optical materials;
• By-products of zinc metallurgy and coal refinement;
• Used electronic components containing Ge, especially Si-Ge semiconductors;
• Powders and residues from high-efficiency photovoltaic manufacturing.

If you have germanium, germanium oxide or germanium-bearing residues, send us the available details so we can provide an accurate purchase offer.
