A clearer view of your converter’s value.
A price starts with understanding what you have. Explore the underlying metals market in pounds, then see how a converter’s identity, condition and recoverable content inform an individual offer.
Every converter has a next chapter.

Small amounts. Precious value.
Three remarkable metals. One good reason to recycle.
Getting the latest reference
Metal references, not a converter offer. Your payout is based on the grade and recoverable content.

The market is a reference. Your converter is individual.
The figures above are Umicore’s published fabricated metal sales references, converted to GBP with a published European Central Bank exchange rate. They are not scrap purchase prices or an offer for your converter.
The total weight of a converter includes its casing and other material. Multiplying that weight by a platinum, palladium or rhodium price will not give a meaningful purchase value.
What goes into a valuation?
Identity
The actual unit’s visible code and markings help us identify it. A vehicle make or model is useful context, but does not replace information about the converter itself.
Find out more about identityCondition and content
We assess the converter itself and consider its recoverable material. Describe damage, missing parts or anything you are uncertain about when you enquire.
Find out more about condition and contentMarket and processing
The market at the time of grading and the costs of recovering the material also inform the offer. An earlier indication is confirmed when the unit is graded.
Why can an offer change?
Metal markets move, and photographs may not reveal a converter’s full condition. If an earlier indication changes after inspection, ask us to explain the difference. You should understand the offer before you decide.
For a current assessment of your own converter, send its details and photographs. Roger or Richard will confirm the purchase offer after grading.
