Welcome to Precious Waste Refinery Pvt. Ltd. — Nepal’s only licensed Material Recovery Facility. We believe that every piece of waste holds the potential to be transformed into something valuable. In an increasingly digital world, electronic waste (e-waste) is growing at an alarming rate, threatening the environment and wasting precious resources. We’re here to change that narrative.

E-waste contains hazardous materials like lead, mercury, and cadmium, which can harm the environment and human health if not managed responsibly. When e-waste ends up in landfills or is improperly recycled, these toxic substances seep into the soil and water, causing long-term damage. Additionally, old devices often store sensitive information, posing serious data privacy risks if not securely destroyed.

But e-waste isn’t just a problem—it’s an opportunity. Electronics contain precious metals like gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, as well as valuable materials such as copper and rare earth elements. By recovering these resources, we can reduce the demand for traditional mining, which has a significant environmental footprint. This process, known as “urban mining” , is far less damaging to the environment, minimizes energy consumption, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and alleviates the strain on natural resources.

At Precious Waste Refinery, we are committed to creating value from waste while contributing to a cleaner, greener Nepal. Join us in leading the way in responsible e-waste recycling, protecting our environment, securing data, and unlocking the hidden potential in discarded electronics.
