Revenue model

1. Metal Recycling/Buy-Sell: Globe Metal purchases scrap and waste metals from industrial customers, processes them using XRF analysis and separation techniques, then resells the recovered metals to manufacturers. Revenue is generated through the margin between purchase price (based on commodity market prices) and sale price to end-use manufacturers. The company offers fair market value based on current commodity prices.
2. Raw Material Supply: Direct sale of processed metals including elements, alloy revert, certified ingots, and thin film coating materials to manufacturers. Revenue from selling production-ready metals that have been graded, processed, and prepared for immediate use in manufacturing processes.
3. Processing Services: Fee-based processing services including material analysis, separation, cleaning, and preparation. Services include consultation, sorting, cleaning, transportation, import/export, and certified destruction services for aerospace and other regulated industries.

Core offering

Globe Metal is an industrial metal recycler and raw materials supplier that purchases high-value scrap and end-of-life metal materials (tungsten carbide, nickel/cobalt/molybdenum/titanium superalloys, tantalum, rhenium, precious metals, spent sputtering targets, turbine blades, mining tools) from industrial customers. It processes, grades, and analyzes the materials using XRF technology, then resells production-ready metals as Elements, Alloy Revert, Certified Ingot, and Thin Film Coatings to manufacturers worldwide, in addition to offering fee-based processing and certified destruction services.

Product overview

Globe Metal® is an industrial metal recycling company headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, operating since 1999. The company operates as both a recycler and producer of raw materials, offering four main product lines under its Raw Materials Supply division: Elements (pure and alloyed elemental metals), Alloy Revert (production-ready alloy scrap for melt shop reuse), Certified Ingot (traceable, grade-verified ingots for critical applications), and Thin Film Coatings (precision metals for semiconductor, optics, and coating applications). Beyond raw material supply, the company provides specialized recycling services including gas turbine and jet engine component recycling, spent sputtering target recycling, superalloy recycling, mining equipment recovery, and additive manufacturing powder recycling. The company uses XRF analysis, UN-approved drums for hazardous materials, and ISO-certified processes across its operations. Key metals in its portfolio include nickel, cobalt, molybdenum, tungsten carbide, tantalum, titanium, and rare earth elements.
