From Waste to Strategic Metals: Circular Materials Achieves First Industrial-Scale Recoveries Under the Critical Raw Materials Act

PADUA, Italy--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Circular Materials announces two major milestones under the Critical Raw Materials Act: the recovery from industrial wastewater of the first kilogram of ruthenium and the first ton of nickel, preventing the release of heavy metals into the environment. These results were secured through strong collaborations with two leading companies in surface treatments: LEM, core company of the LEM INDUSTRIES Group, specialized in the luxury sector, and Argos Surface Technologies Group, a leader in industrial coatings. We recover what the world needs most: Circular Materials delivers first industrial-scale metal recoveries. This success comes just a few months after the European Commission recognized Recover-IT as a strategic project, confirming the pivotal role of Circular Materials in securing critical raw material supplies, increasing recycling, and reducing the EU's dependence on imports. Ruthenium and Nickel: crucial metals for a sustainable future Ruthenium, a noble metal from the platinum group, is essential for cutting-edge sectors such as advanced electronics, green hydrogen production, fine chemicals, fuel cells, and luxury goods. Nickel, on the other hand, is a critical element, essential in advanced steels and lithium batteries —pillars of the energy transition. Circular Materials' proprietary SWaP (Supercritical Water Precipitation) technology delivers exceptional effectiveness and versatility to recover precious and industrially intensive metals. A revolutionary environmental impact: carbon negative and beyond Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of the process applied to ruthenium and nickel reveals a remarkable environmental benefit. For ruthenium, emissions are reduced by over 99.6% compared to traditional mining. Even more impressive is the result for nickel: the SWaP process not only reduces emissions but becomes carbon negative, actively avoiding the total CO₂ production associated with conventional methods. ' Circular Materials strengthens its technological leadership and, together with its partners, builds a solid and integrated circular supply chain capable of transforming industrial waste into new resources, preventing the loss of critical materials,' says Marco Bersani, Founder & CEO of Circular Materials. ' With the industrial-scale recovery of ruthenium and nickel, we are shaping a strategy that reduces dependence on external sources, lowers the environmental impact of production processes, and valorizes waste streams that until now have been dispersed '. In a global context marked by the impacting scarcity of critical resources and the need to ensure a secure and sustainable supply, Circular Materials stands out as a key player in a new European industrial paradigm focused on recovering the resources the world needs most. About Us: Circular Materials Circular Materials is a groundbreaking company with proprietary technology for the recovery of strategic metals from industrial wastewater through a sustainable and highly efficient process. The company has developed and patented the Supercritical Water Precipitation (SWaP) technology, which simultaneously treats wastewater and recovers metal, eliminating toxic sludge production and significantly reducing environmental impact, both in terms of waste and emissions.

Syngenta to Become Global Leader in Biologicals; Expanding Nature Inspired Solutions for Farmers

BASEL, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Syngenta is accelerating the rollout of its nature-inspired, science-based biological solutions, responding to rising demand for sustainable, high-performance tools that help farmers boost productivity efficiently and responsibly. It also contributes toward Syngenta's fulfilment of commitments outlined in its Sustainability Priorities. Jonathan Brown, Global Head Biologicals & Seedcare, comments: 'With our recent partnerships and acquisitions and extended manufacturing capacities, Syngenta is positioning itself as the leader in biologicals. Our scientific expertise is at the forefront of our research and development efforts to provide farmers with the next generation of biologicals, helping them transition towards more sustainable farming practices, such as regenerative agriculture.' In December 2024, the company acquired Intrinsyx Bio, a California-based start-up specializing in the development of nutrient-use efficiency products. Most recently, in early 2025, Syngenta concluded the integration of Novartis' Strains and Natural Products Collection, the repository of natural compounds and genetic strains for agricultural use. These additions will accelerate the development of biologicals, bringing new tools to the market as a sustainable complement to conventional crop protection solutions. Also in 2025, Syngenta opened a 22,000 m² biologicals facility in Orangeburg, South Carolina, in the United States, which is purpose-built to produce 16,000 tons of biostimulants annually. This new manufacturing facility complements Syngenta's existing global network of biologicals' manufacturing facilities in Brazil, Italy, India and Norway. These strategic milestones effectively enhance both Syngenta's R&D, operating out of the centers of excellence in Stein, Switzerland; Jealott's Hill, UK; Atessa, Italy; and production capacity for biologicals, facilitating Syngenta's roll out of its biologicals pipeline, with multiple candidates demonstrating strong commercial potential with projected annual sales above USD 100 million. Syngenta Biologicals posted strong Q1 2025 results, with standout performance in North America and China. The global biologicals market is growing at around 10% CAGR and is projected to reach nearly USD 20 billion by 2030, according to AgbioInvestor and Syngenta's estimate, underlining the pivotal role of biologicals in the future of sustainable farming. Derived predominantly from naturally occurring substances, biologicals offer significant potential for sustainable agriculture. The market can be categorized into three main categories: Biocontrols – Naturally derived products for managing pests, diseases, and weeds. Biostimulants – Products enhancing natural plant processes to improve abiotic stress tolerance and crop quality. Nutrient Use Efficiency (NUE) products – Any substance or microorganism to improve macro- and micronutrient availability and uptake to promote growth and enhance yield. About Syngenta Syngenta is a global leader in agricultural innovation with a presence in more than 90 countries. Syngenta is focused on developing technologies and farming practices that empower farmers, so they can make the transformation required to feed the world's population while preserving our planet. Its bold scientific discoveries deliver better benefits for farmers and society on a bigger scale than ever before.
