We are COLMEX Recycling
Founded in 2022 by two partners with more than 30 years of experience in the industry. Realizing that the used catalytic converter buying and selling industry lacked transparency and honesty, we created COLMEX.
Colmex provides its clients with an honest and positive selling-buying experience. We understand that if our clients are successful we will be too.
That is why COLMEX is committed to offering the best price while building strong relationships that last for generations.
We collect used catalytic converters and oxygen sensors directly from your facility, saving you time and money.
Our services
Our goal is to provide you with the best service that will not only save you time but bring you higher profitability.
It begins with our experienced purchasing team going directly to your location saving you time that can rather be spent on your clients and business. We are here to guide and educate each and every single one of our clients on the price, quality and different types of catalytic converters.

Search for the material
COLMEX offers you a competitive price due to the clean, effective and efficient decantation process. In this way, eliminating the middleman (reseller) and going directly to the foundry process.
Thus, it brings you closer to the final processing steps of a used catalytic converter.
Let's work together!
