Cyclic Materials

Rare earth elements (REEs) are at the core of today’s most valuable industries. From electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid motors to wind turbines, medical devices, e-bikes, and electronics, these materials are indispensable for powering the technologies of the future.

But here is the challenge: over 90% of REEs are processed in China, and more than 90% of industrial magnets are produced there. As demand grows, supply chains are under pressure. But the biggest deposit of rare earths is not underground — it is sitting right in your scrapyard.

A Valuable Resource in End-of-Life Vehicles

Permanent magnets containing rare earth elements like neodymium and dysprosium are found in a wide range of products, including EV motors and wind turbines. When these products reach the end of their life, they often contain valuable materials that are not being properly recovered.

Currently, less than 1% of rare earth magnets are recycled globally. According to Adamas Intelligence, the U.S. alone will have over 43,000 metric tonnes of end-of-life permanent magnets by 2035 — materials that could be going to waste if not recovered.

This is where Cyclic Materials steps in, offering automotive recyclers an unprecedented opportunity to turn these end-of-life components into valuable resources.

Unlocking New Revenue Streams for Auto Recyclers

Cyclic Materials provides an efficient, scalable solution to recover rare earth magnets from end-of-life products, creating a new source of revenue for auto recyclers. Here is how partnering with us benefits your business:

• Competitive prices for cores, no matter the condition

• Streamlined operations, saving you time and resources

• Upfront payment, no waiting for checks to clear

• No shipping or handling costs — we cover all the logistics

Game-changing technologies to help you make the most out of your cores

Cyclic Materials works with a broad network of recyclers, wind turbine dismantlers, and OEMs to recover valuable rare earth magnets. Here is the simple process:

1. End-of-life cores arrive at Cyclic’s facility

Auto recyclers send in products like EV motors and alternators.

2. Magnets are separated

At our SPOKE facility in Arizona, magnets are separated from other metals like copper, aluminum, and steel.

3. Recovery of Mixed Rare Earth Oxides (rMREOs)

The magnets are processed into rMREOs at our HUB facility.

4. Reintroduced into the supply chain

The recycled MREOs are sold to industry leaders, who refine them and send them back into the magnet manufacturing supply chain.

 A Resilient and Profitable Long-Term Supply

After the battery recycling boom, the next wave of growth in the recycling industry will come from magnet recycling. Automakers and manufacturers are scrambling to secure a reliable supply of rare earths for EV production, and recycling magnets provides a local and more resilient source of these critical materials.

By partnering with Cyclic Materials, auto recyclers can help ensure that the rare earth supply chain remains steady, profitable, and less dependent on overseas sources. This resilience translates directly into long-term business stability, helping your yard stay competitive in an evolving market.

 Why Recyclers Are Key to the Future of Rare Earths

Mining rare earths is costly and time-consuming, with environmental and geopolitical risks. Meanwhile, the largest urban mine is already in your yard, filled with magnets that could be the key to a more resilient, profitable future.

By partnering with Cyclic Materials, auto recyclers can:

• Unlock more value from end-of-life vehicles

• Strengthen North America’s supply of critical materials

• Enhance long-term profitability by capitalizing on a growing market

• Help reduce dependency on overseas sources
