Mint Innovation Partners with HP to Produce Certified Closed-Loop Recycled Copper from E-Waste
Mint Innovation has collaborated with HP to produce the first certified closed-loop recycled copper from electronic waste, specifically from end-of-life printed circuit boards, using Mint's biosorption technology. The recovered copper will be utilized in HP products such as the EliteBook X G2 Series laptops.
The process received certification from TÜV Rheinland, ensuring compliance with international standards. Mint is also expanding operations, with a new facility under construction in Longview, Texas, expected to start in 2027. Additionally, Mint secured £8.1 million for a UK project aimed at recycling critical minerals from electric vehicle batteries, demonstrating its commitment to circular supply chains.
