Defense components demand reliable rubber and polyurethane to metal bonding. Vibration isolating mounts, shock absorbing assemblies, and bonded structural parts are used across military vehicles, weapons systems, and equipment platforms. When they fail quality control, are replaced, refurbished, or retired, they carry metal value that standard scrap disposal does not recover.
PolyMet Recovery debonds and denudes polymers from metal components. Defense scrap is not always straightforward to handle through conventional channels, and the consequences of mishandling controlled materials are significant. PolyMet offers a reclamation pathway specifically suited to the complexity of defense-generated rubber and polyurethane bonded scrap, with documentation practices designed to meet the reporting standards your program requires rather than the minimum a general recycler would provide. Beyond compliance, reclaimed metal offsets the cost of virgin materials, strengthens supply chain resilience, and helps programs meet government sustainability and recycling initiatives.
