Patent Filing

Descycle is pleased to announce that it has filed its maiden patent (the “Patent”) with the UK Intellectual Property Office (“UKIPO”), which covers the Company’s core activities of the extraction of metals from feedstocks, including the intellectual property (“IP”) surrounding the use of Descycle’s chemistry, DES.

Descycle will continue to explore further patent applications, particularly focussing on those that cover the process and IP internationally, as the Company evaluates future international growth opportunities.

Leo Howden, Descycle Managing Director commented: “The Descycle team have been working tirelessly to collate the relevant information and documentation for this first patent, which we view as a landmark moment for the Company. E-waste recycling and metal recovery is currently a highly pollutive industry in need of less carbon intensive processes, creating a significant market opportunity for low carbon alternatives such as DES to disrupt the market.”
