Full-circle Economy

We are advancing the circular economy for California based companies and beyond by recycling and returning metals into the ecosystem.

Relying on the evolution of our resources.

SVCM collects materials at the end of the supply chain which are recycled and returned back to producers. 

Silicon Valley Circular Materials was founded with the goal of eliminating waste to address the growing environmental impact of excessive production and consumption. Recognizing the strain that waste places on natural resources and ecosystems, the company sought to reduce pollution and conserve materials. By focusing on sustainability, the business aimed to create processes that minimized waste at every stage, from manufacturing to disposal. Ultimately, the company's goal is to foster a culture of environmental responsibility and long-term ecological balance.

How the circular economy works.

Reduce the misuse of resources.

  • The Circular Model

    The Circular Model

    Circularity, is a model of production and consumption that involves reusing, sharing, leasing, refurbishing, remanufacturing, and recycling existing materials to extend their life for as long as possible. This model aims to create a closed-loop system that reduces the misuse of resources, generates less waste, and addresses climate change, pollution, and reduce carbon emissions. The result is a prologed lifespan of products, materials, and infrastructure. Now waste can be used to create renewable energy that becomes the input for other industrial processes or can be used as a natural regenerative resource.

  • The Benefit

    The Benefit

    The circular economy would benefit us all by decoupling the burden on natural resources from economic growth, reducing our dependence on essential materials from foreign suppliers, reducing Co2 emissions, creating less waste, and changing how we design and produce products. It would also change how we consume materials and products. From a business perspective, we would have better control over the supply of raw materials and reduce price unpredictability, waste, and pollution while prolonging products' life. These benefits would also extend to new customer areas and create longer-term shareholder value. By changing the model, we will generate more employment opportunities and impact prosperity while at the same time drastically eliminating greenhouse emissions, waste, and pollution.

  • A Better Way Forward

    A Better Way Forward

    Industries need to start disassembling and regenerating, recycling valuable materials, and turning waste into capital. Let's consider how we design, produce and consume. For instance, we could license products instead of buying them, with the eventual aim of returning them to their manufacturers where their biological components can be used for renewable energy. With different modes of design, processes and ideas like these, we have some chance of changing the model. By keeping products and materials in use, farming as close to nature as possible, repurposing, and making a profit out of waste, we can create long-term sustainable models that will ensure continued viability for business while protecting our planet and our future.
