Tesla Recycling

What Tesla Recycling does

Tesla Recycling Sp. z o.o. is a Polish industrial recycling company founded in 2011 and headquartered at ul. Traugutta 42 in Grodzisk Mazowiecki, Mazovia. The company purchases and processes waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), printed circuit boards (PCBs), and ferrous and non-ferrous metal scrap, and self-positions as the leader in the Polish PCB recycling market. It is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tesla Holdco sp. z o.o., which sits within Elemental Holding Group — a diversified urban-mining and recycling conglomerate operating across 35 countries on three continents and organized around four business lines: used catalytic converters (SAC), WEEE/PCB recycling, non-ferrous metal scrap, and Li-Ion batteries. A reverse merger in which Tesla Holdco is absorbed into Tesla Recycling was announced on March 31, 2026, making Tesla Recycling the surviving entity within the group.

The company's core operations consist of acquiring recyclable feedstocks from industrial suppliers (manufacturers, electronics recyclers, industrial facilities) and processing them through on-site shredding and physical separation to recover industrial-grade metals. Product lines span WEEE recycling (PCBs, CPUs/RAM, hard drives, power supplies, transformers, batteries, ABS plastic), non-ferrous metals (copper, aluminum, brass, bronze, lead, zinc, tin), ferrous metals (steel, stainless steel, cast iron, engine blocks), precious metals (platinum, gold, silver), and rare metals (tungsten 99%, titanium 99%, cobalt 99%, cemented carbides). Tesla Recycling operates two specialized pricing models for PCBs: a fixed price-list purchase with 100% upfront payment and a processing-contract model with provisional payments up to 70% of valuation, settled against official smelter results with optional independent laboratory verification. The company holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018 certifications, a 2022 waste generation and processing permit, BDO registration (000013739), and a waste status cessation certificate, which together constitute the regulatory permission stack required to legally process WEEE and metal scrap in Poland.

Tesla Recycling runs a sales-led B2B go-to-market through a dedicated domestic field-sales team of at least ten regional representatives and a six-person international trade team with multi-language coverage (Polish, Russian, English, Chinese, Italian, Arabic, Ukrainian, Japanese, Hungarian) for cross-border feedstock sourcing. The revenue model is a transactional commodity spread: Tesla buys materials at negotiated or published rates, processes them through mechanical recovery, and resells recovered metals to industrial customers, capturing the margin between input and output prices. Marketing is conducted primarily through the company's bilingual (Polish/English) website (teslarecycling.pl) and Elemental Holding Group's profile on the Polish job portal Pracuj.pl. Headcount is reported at six, though the breadth of named sales, trade, transport, and waste-records contacts implies a substantially larger yard and operations workforce on the ground in Grodzisk Mazowiecki.
