The critical raw materials challenge
More than 90%
of chemical and industrial processes depend on catalysts.
Many of these catalysts
still rely on scarce and geopolitically concentrated raw materials.
That makes catalyst innovation
a strategic lever for industrial resilience, competitiveness and decarbonisation.
The problem
Catalysts are foundational to modern industry, yet many still depend on scarce, expensive, and strategically concentrated platinum group metals (PGMs). This creates a growing bottleneck for decarbonisation technologies and industrial scale-up.
The precious metals are very geographically concentrated.
Europe imports 98+% of PGM needs – zero strategic buffer.
Many decarbonisation technologies such as Fuel Cells & Water Electrolysers remain highly reliant to precious metals.
Our nanotech catalyst platform is
The solution
ReCatalyst has built the world’s most flexible nanotech platform – with the ability to dramatically reduce precious metal dependency across the entire periodic system.
ReCatalyst’s carbon supported platinum-based catalyst for hydrogen technologies such as Fuel Cell and Water Electrolysers.
We are ISO 9001:2015 certified.
Our commitment to quality extends to our innovations.
A platform that solves it
Hydrogen is our first vertical. The platform is built for many more.
