Why Re Sustainability Reldan’s LEED Platinum Certification Sets a New Standard in Precious Metal Recovery

When it comes to recycling, conversations often revolve around plastic, paper, or household waste. But in today’s interconnected, tech-driven world, the metals inside our devices, like gold, silver, and platinum, are just as critical. Processing them responsibly is no longer optional. At Re Sustainability Reldan, this is where our expertise lies, and we’re proud to say that we recover these materials in a facility that meets the highest global benchmarks for sustainability.

Our operations are housed in a LEED Platinum–certified facility, a distinction awarded by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and the pinnacle of what it means to operate sustainably in today’s industrial landscape.

What Is LEED Platinum And Why It Matters

Earning LEED Platinum certification for a facility in the precious metal recovery space demonstrates that world-class recycling and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand.

A Purpose-Built Facility That Reflects Our Values

Our LEED Platinum–certified plant was envisioned not just for performance but also for long-term environmental and operational excellence.

 This certification reflects our ongoing efforts to:

  • Optimize energy use through smart systems and efficient infrastructure
  • Conserve water with closed-loop and reuse mechanisms
  • Improve material efficiency and reduce operational waste
  • Enhance worker well-being through cleaner, safer, and better-designed spaces.

Sustainability here is not a label, it’s a design choice, a leadership mindset, and a long-term operational philosophy.

What It Means for Our Clients and Partners

For businesses, sustainability is no longer optional, it’s a strategic imperative. Whether for ESG reporting, regulatory compliance, or brand alignment, working with a partner like Re Sustainability Reldan adds credibility and confidence.

Our LEED Platinum certification ensures that:

  • Materials are recovered in an environmentally responsible manner
  • Clients can demonstrate traceability and responsible downstream practices
  • Engagements support broader sustainability and circular economy goals
  • Every shipment handled contributes to real, measurable environmental benefit

Certification That Reflects More Than Compliance

This is not about status; it’s about standards. LEED Platinum represents our ongoing commitment to leading by example. It validates that even in complex industrial sectors, it’s possible to prioritize sustainability at every level, from building design to day-to-day operations.

Looking Ahead: Innovation with a Sustainability Lens

Our journey to LEED Platinum wasn’t a one-time milestone it continues to guide our future. As we explore new technologies and evolve our recovery processes, this certification remains a foundational benchmark.

 We continue to ask ourselves how we can make recovery cleaner, smarter, and more impactful for our clients, communities, and the planet.

Looking Ahead: Circular Luxury

Picture this: a future where nothing truly goes to waste. Your old laptop could help craft a new bracelet, and a discarded circuit board might become part of a necklace. This vision of circular luxury is already unfolding. Governments are tightening e-waste regulations, and refiners are setting up cutting-edge facilities to recover precious metals more efficiently.

For the jewelry industry, this isn’t just a passing trend; it’s a pathway to resilience. Brands that embrace recycled plating early will set the standard for what modern luxury looks like: beautiful, ethical, and responsible.

Conclusion

At Re Sustainability Reldan, our mission is to recover more than just metals — we aim to recover value, responsibility, and a shared vision for a better future.

Being LEED Platinum–certified is one part of that journey. It is a symbol of how industrial innovation and sustainability can move forward together.

We welcome businesses, institutions, and stakeholders to join us in shaping a recovery ecosystem that is not only efficient but also ethically and environmentally aligned.

Because ultimately, what we recover isn’t just precious — it’s also purposeful
