The cost of the catalyst is based on the utilization price:

The number of pt/pd/rh precious metals is multiplied by the cost of metals (taken from the Kitco exchange) and by the monolith weight.

Then from the price are deducted:

• manufacturing recycling costs
• 1% moisture
• losses during metal refining
• logistics costs

Buyers in each country/region announce their purchase price based on our catalog prices with a deduction of about 5%-30%, depending on the market situation and on the batch size.
