Strategic Investor Mitsubishi Corporation Visits DEScycle
This week, we welcomed the Mitsubishi Corporation team to DEScycle’s demonstration plant at Wilton, following their strategic investment in DEScycle last year.The partnership brings together Mitsubishi’s global expertise and network in metals trading with DEScycle’s deep technology in critical metals recovery, with a shared ambition to help build more resilient supply chains for critical and precious metals.During the visit, the team got a closer look at our technology and infrastructure, as well as the progress we’re making towards demonstrating a cleaner, more efficient approach to recovering valuable metals from e-waste.
The Wilton plant is a live demonstration of the potential to extract critical metals out of domestic waste streams. The partnership between DEScycle and Mitsubishi Corporation will enable us to diversify metal supply streams and reinforce the circular economy in Japan.

Site visits like this are an important part of turning strategic partnerships into practical progress: bringing partners closer to the technology, sharing insights and exploring what it could mean at commercial scale.We’re looking forward to continuing our work with Mitsubishi as we develop the next generation of metals processing infrastructure.
