How do you recognise a coat of arms?

It is not found in circulation in its pure, bulk form — it reaches us as scrap from optical fibres and telecommunications equipment. It is precisely the addition of erbium that enables the amplification of the optical signal without converting it into an electrical signal.

Accepted forms

  • lumps
  • granules
  • powder
  • oxide
  • films

We accept optical and telecommunications scrap for further recycling.
