Shipment details Annex VII (Only requested for annual gross weight > 20kg.)
Precious metal waste, i.e. refinery scrap and sweepings, is first tested by C.HAFNER in a complex technical process for their precious metal content. Next, the old gold is melted down and processed into fine gold through a chemical process. The fine gold obtained is then further processed into precious metal products such as semi-finished products, ingots and other preliminary products before going on sale. At the end of its useful life, which is often decades or more, the precious metal product returns to the cycle as old gold.
// With CO2-neutral recycling from C.HAFNER
The reduction of CO2 has become a global challenge. We believe that the precious metals industry can, and must, also make a contribution. With CO2-neutral gold, we are setting an example and offering precious metal processing companies an additional tool to improve their carbon footprint. Sustainable, environmentally and future-oriented.
The reprocessing of precious metal waste and residues is associated with the handling of highly valuable materials. We have been aware of this responsibility since 1850. As a family business, we stand for stability and continuity. For the trust of our customers.
Trust is fine. Transparency is better! Our modern, high-precision analytics form the technical basis for a precise and reliable analysis of the precious metal content of residual materials. Documented down to the smallest detail – and transparent.
As a highly efficient, family-owned German company, C.HAFNER stands most importantly for security and stability. For our customers, this means a guaranteed cash flow at the agreed purchase price of precious metals and on the agreed date.
When reimbursing for precious metal waste, speed and rapid cash flow are of paramount importance. Thanks to high process speeds, we guarantee a refund within the shortest possible time as a credit note or in the form of fine gold bars or semi-finished products.
Behind C.HAFNER’s high-precision analyses is one of the most modern analytics facilities of its kind. With an effective laboratory management information system, secure processes and major certifications, we can guarantee accurate analyses.
Modern technology is the door to security and trust - valuable customer relationships are the key! At C.HAFNER, the focus has always been on trusting and personal contact with customers rather than anonymous processes. Our office and field staff will be happy to help you!
Precious metal recycling and the procurement of precious metal products such as semi-finished products or fine gold bars from a single source make sense! Because customer-focused, simplified processes save C.HAFNER customers both money and precious time!

Given that most of the refining processes used here involve chemicals, precious metal recycling entails a particularly high level of responsibility vis-à-vis employees and the environment. As early as in the 1990s, C.HAFNER already invested in state-of-the-art environmental and safety standards that not only meet the legal requirements but, in some cases, even exceed them.
