Founded in 2012 in Atlanta, Georgia, Recleim is an innovative, next-generation appliance recycling company specializing in closed-loop resource recovery. Utilizing proprietary design and technology, Recleim stands out in the marketplace by exceeding all existing Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards. The company operates along the East Coast and throughout the USA, focusing on the recycling of residential and commercial appliances, including refrigerators, oven ranges, dishwashers, washers, dryers, and HVAC units.
Recleim's business model revolves around de-manufacturing appliances to recover valuable commodity components such as steel, aluminum, copper, plastic, and foam pellets. These byproducts are then sold to downstream recyclers and commodity buyers worldwide, creating a sustainable revenue stream. The company's recycling processes are highly efficient, recovering 95% by weight of the commodity components in recycled appliances. This not only maximizes resource recovery but also significantly reduces landfill waste.
Recleim's state-of-the-art technology captures and destroys up to 99% of harmful greenhouse gases, refrigerants, and ozone-depleting substances, making a substantial positive impact on the environment. For example, responsibly recycling one refrigerator can prevent up to 10 tons of CO2 and related compounds from entering the atmosphere, equivalent to taking two cars off the road for one year.
