We are the first company in the country specializing in solid waste recycling and reclamation services. Since 2001, the company has been servicing the waste disposal requirements of the country's semiconductor and electronics industries. In 2004, IRI has realized its vision of becoming a fully-integrated waste recycling company. Now a total environmental company, it offers its clients:

• the most competitive prices for waste materials
• professional and highly-trained personnel
• state-of-the art machinery and equipment
• complete servicing hauling to metal extraction/treatment
• tight security for the protection of proprietary information in the materials
• ideal location
• environmentally-safe processes with complete pollution control infrastructure

Guaranteed Protection of Proprietary Intellectual Products

It is our commitment to protect the client's proprietary intellectual products and our company guarantees destruction of all production rejects and sub standard products. Materials are purchased strictly and solely for metal recovery only. Proprietary software are erased, tapes are degaussed and documentation destroyed protecting your confidential information.

Reports will be published to satisfy traceability requirements and to ensure accountability.

Metal Recovery Sytem

In 2004, IRI invested in US$2.5 million state-of-the-art metal recovery system, the first in the country. Capable of treating hazardous waste materials, the system does actual recycling of clients' scrap materials. The resulting products are raw materials which are exported minus the hazardous wastes.

The facility boasts of the following:

• capable of recycling and treating 400 tons of waste materials monthly;
• specifically designed to comply with Philippine environmental laws and standards, e.g. compliance with clean air act provisions; and
• uses chemical separation and cutting-edge scientific extraction methods such as electrolysis, non-burn treatment.

Our History

Integrated Recycling Industries (IRI) was established in the country as a trading office in 1993. Materials purchased were exported for processing abroad.

In December 2000, IRI was incorporated as a new Philippine corporation. The incorporation saw the dynamic fusion of foreign financial and technological resources and Filipino talent. Henceforth, IRI went full speed ahead in working towards becoming a world-class and leading recycling and reclamation facility. In January 2001, IRI obtained its Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) registration.

IRI realized the difficulties inherent in exporting scrap materials, specifically those which are hazardous in nature, from the Philippines to other countries. Due to this and in compliance with the Basel Convention and other international protocol, IRI decided to put up a central treating facility where it is required the most-close to the major center of the country's semiconductor and electronic industries.

On January 2002, soon after the completion of its Building A which houses the offices and crushing facilities, IRI started commercial operations, servicing the waste disposal requirements of multinational companies, e.g. Intel Philippines Mfg. Co., Philips Semiconductor, Amkor Technologies, Inc.; Integrated Microelectronics, Inc.

It became the first and only company in the country specializing in the recycling and reclamation of non-ferrous and precious metals from electronic production rejects, computer parts and telecommunication equipment. It is also engaged in the trading of nonferrous and precious metals, as well as recycled plastic materials.

On February 2002, IRI became a member of the Semiconductor and Electronics Industries in the country, Inc. (SEIPI). In the meantime, expansion efforts continued and in June 2002, ground breaking was held for the construction of two additional buildings. These were built for the treatment of hazardous materials, metal recovery, and additional warehouse space.

Two significant certifications were acquired that same year. In August 2002, IRI was awarded ISO 14001:1996 certification; and in October 2002, ISO 9001:2000 certification.

As early as its first year, operations were profitable exceeding break-even expectations. From January 2002 to January 2003, IRI's number of customers increased from less than 20 to more than 40.

January 2003 marked the completion of Buildings 2 and 3 and in October 2004. IRI's Metal Recovery System was completed, making IRI a fully-integrated recycling company a total environmental company.

It is also engaged in the trading of nonferrous and precious metals, as well as recycled plastic materials.

What types of materials does IRI process?

IRI processes the scrap materials generated from the semiconductor and electronics industries. Various types of metals and plastic are processed in its recycling facility in Calamba, Laguna. Among the scrap materials that IRI process are:

• Gold-based materials such as gold wires, CPGA, reject units
• Copper-based materials such as endrails, trimmings, dambar
• Aluminum-based materials

  • Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)
  • Polyethylene (PE)
  • ABS
  • Acetal
  • High Impact Polysterene (HIPS)
  • Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT)
  • Polycarbonate (PC)

How do I know the value of the scrap materials?

• If you have scrap materials that are ready for disposal, you may contact our customer service team and they will be glad to pay you a visit to get a sample of the materials. It is necessary that we see the materials so we can give our most competitive prices.
• The value of the scrap materials are based on the prices at London Metal Exchange (LME). In most cases, the buying price of IRI on materials with significant amount of metal depends on the prices at LME. To give our customers a fair price, we monitor the prices of each metal commodity at LME. If, for example, the price of copper at LME goes down, we adjust our buying price accordingly. The same is true also when the copper price at LME goes up.
• For other scrap materials, our team of experts in the recycling business will evaluate the sample and we will offer a price that will maximize your profit out of that scrap materials.

How do I dispose to IRI the scrap materials I have?

• If you are a company operating under PEZA, you won't have any problem disposing your scrap materials. IRI has a fleet of trucks that collect scrap materials in the Calabarzon area on a day to day basis. Once the contract is signed, our Logistics Team will weigh the scrap materials at your site with the presence of your representative to make sure that the weights are correct and that only the specified scrap materials are loaded to our trucks. All you need to prepare are the Letter of Authority, Surety Bond, gate pass, invoice and the PEZA form 8106. All the handling and transportation documentation outside your company will be handled by us.
• If you are a trader of scrap materials, all you have to do is bring the sample to our facility and we will quote it right away. Once we agree on the price, you can deliver the scrap materials to our facility. The weighing is done in our facility and is witnessed by your representative/s.

How do I know if the materials with intellectual property rights (IPR) are destroyed?

• The scrap materials with IPRs are destroyed in such a way that it could not be identified or re-used again. We have crushers that are capable of crushing the biggest and the smallest units. We provide security seals while the materials are in transit. We do not crush the materials without the presence of your representative/s. Certificates of Crushing/Destruction are issued signed by both parties.
• If you have large volumes of scrap materials with IPRs, we can even consign crushers for on-site destruction. This way, you can be sure that your products are crushed before it leaves your facility.

IRI treats the following hazardous wastes:

• Printed circuit board trimmings
• Solder Dross
• Solder paste
• Cutwires
• Materials contaminated with lead
• Other electronic materials which are classified as hazardous
