What Happens to Old Spark Plugs? Dingfeng Precious Metals Has the Answer

Millions of spark plugs are replaced every year, especially by large-scale fleet operators, auto shops, and manufacturers. Most are tossed aside as scrap, yet many still contain valuable precious metals like platinum, palladium, and iridium.

At Dingfeng Precious Metals, we specialize in recovering those metals through high-volume spark plug recycling. Instead of ending up in landfills, used spark plugs can become a resource—feeding back into industrial supply chains.

Why Recycling Matters

• Precious metals are limited and increasingly expensive

• Extracting them from spent spark plugs is far more efficient than mining new ores

• Recycling supports responsible resource use and reduces environmental harm

How We Do It
Our process includes bulk intake, advanced metal separation techniques, and high-purity refining. The result is a cleaner planet and a better bottom line for our partners.

Spark plug recycling is often overlooked. At Dingfeng, we make it easy, valuable, and sustainable.
