We Pay Competitive Rates For Solder Dross
Unlike some companies who collect dross for free, Solder Flow Recycling always pay competitive rates for recovered metals together with full collection paperwork.
How We Calculate Solder Dross Recycling Prices
The price we pay for solder dross recycling is based on several important factors including alloy quality, weight and current metal market prices.
What Is Solder Dross?
Wave soldering processes are usually carried out in the presence of air, meaning metal alloy can become oxidised and rendered unusable during manufacturing.
This unusable alloy is known as solder dross and is often discarded as waste material. However, dross is often more than 75% pure alloy and can be refined and recycled for reuse.
Recycling solder dross removes impurities and contaminants, making electronics manufacturing more sustainable and environmentally friendly.
What Are The Benefits Of Recycling Solder Dross?
One of the biggest advantages of recycling solder dross is reducing the strain on the Earth’s natural resources. Recovering and reusing solder materials reduces the need for further mining and raw material extraction.
Dross recycling also creates additional revenue for manufacturers by allowing unusable solder waste to be sold and refined instead of disposed of.
The process helps reduce electronic waste going into landfill while supporting more sustainable PCB manufacturing and electronics assembly operations.
