Purchase prices by car models and brands

Buyer and recycler of catalytic converters

Ecotrade is a leading purchaser of spent catalytic converters and we have been recycling catalytic converters for over the last 20 years. Thus, we have built up a huge database of knowledge from which we have developed a comprehensive catalog that lists more than 20000 items, and increasing almost daily. Specifically designed to enable you to easily identify, in real-time, the price for scrap cats and, always, the price you see is today’s price - we monitor the market prices for all precious metals and adjust the cat prices accordingly. In conjunction with this catalog, which is constantly updated to reflect market prices, our experienced and conscientious purchasers personally visit premises to sort and assess the worth of used catalysts. This ensures that the buying process is transparent, honest, and fair. We are always available 24/7 and no order is too small – although, of course, there are financial benefits associated with larger quantities. A personal quotation can be provided and, once prices have been agreed upon, we will organize the collection. We guarantee, as well, speedy and full payment for the agreed value. For large quantities, we offer toll refining using our state of the art sampling process. We are renowned for our efficiency, friendliness, and sense of fair play and we believe passionately in providing first-class customer service, unequaled in our industry.

We have also developed the most advanced mobile app to identify catalytic converters through their features (codes, pictures, brands, ..) . Through this online catalytic converter price book, which comes with over 20,000 color pictures, you can conveniently look up the value of scrap catalytic converters either by car brand or catalytic converter manufacturers.

The customer service for Eco Cat is phenomenal. They are on top of it even in the early hours of their business day. I've had nothing but a good experiences with their customer service and have no complaints. I enjoy finding rare cats that they do not have pictures of and helping them out updating their database.

A great app for seeing the value of your catalytic converter. I used it to look up mine and I found it by the serial #, but additionally, their customer service emailed me back a bit later with the link to see their pricing for this part (since I had emailed them initially before finding it myself). I was glad that when Support emailed me back that they addressed my issue. I'm very satisfied with this app and the website.... really with this company overall! Keep up the good work Eco Cat(:

I installed the app for ecocat was kind of unsure about it. So i tried looking up a couple cats, it was after 4:00pm eastern time so they were closed for the day. but I kinda blew it off and forgot about it. Then the next morning i received a email from one of there sales people and instantly had a quote for my cats an almost twice as much for them for what my local cat dealer offered
