De Tingieterij: Your Partner for Recycling

At De Tingieterij, we are not only your partner in purchasing tin, but also in recycling (old) pewter from both private individuals and companies. Do you have tin from an inheritance or a box of pewter in the attic that you want to get rid of? Then please contact us!

We recycle your pewter for new applications, which usually yields more than selling your tin via the internet or a thrift store. The collected tin is melted and analyzed, whereby the final value depends on the composition and the percentage of pewter. Pewter from old utensils often consists of an alloy of tin together with, for example, copper, zinc, antimony or bismuth. The recycled pewter is then reused by us and other foundries at home and abroad.

Hand in your pewter?

We would be happy to receive your pewter! Please contact us by email at [email protected], by phone at 0487-561918, or by WhatsApp at 06-82812555. We would like to receive at least the following information with your request:

- Total weight of the pewter

- A number of clear photos of the objects

- Photos of any pewtermarks present

The clearer the photos, the better we can determine a good price for you.

Delivery, collection or shipping

You can send your pewter to us by post, or have it delivered to us in Alphen a/d Maas. In consultation (depending on the size of the batch) we can also collect the pewter from you.

The role of recycling in the pewter industry

Tin recycling is essential for preserving pewter reserves and reducing waste. Recycling pewter requires considerably less energy than extracting new pewter from mines. This significantly reduces the ecological impact of the pewter industry.

Benefits of Tin Recycling:

- Reduced Energy Needs: Upgrading recycled pewter can reduce energy costs by up to 90%, significantly reducing carbon emissions.
- Waste Management: Recycling reduces the amount of waste going to landfills and reduces environmental impact.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Recycled pewter can be cost-effective for manufacturers and consumers, who can benefit from lower production and material costs.
