Kugler Bimétal has set up a complete bronze recycling loop. Today, bronze waste and shavings from production are sorted, compacted and sent to a partner who recasts the bronze into ingots, before sending it back to Geneva.

In collaboration with La Fabrique Circulaire, Kugler Bimetal's project is to increase the volume of copper and other metals recycled. The idea is to integrate the entire downstream sector and involve other Geneva-based players in the process, in order to create a truly regional circular economy.

The Circular Factory is meeting with industrial and urban players to identify potential sources of waste in Geneva. The aim is to analyse the quantity and availability of these sources, and to assess the possibilities for collecting and recycling metals, so that they can be integrated into the Kugler Bimetal circuit.
