Securing America's critical materials.
What we do
We’re ensuring that everything mined overseas and imported as a product into the U.S. is recovered, recycled, and refined to build a stockpile of critical materials.
Our integrated process involves recycling batteries at end-of-life, refining their critical minerals, and manufacturing critical materials for the U.S. supply chain.
20 GWh
Lithium-ion battery recycling
Redwood recovers over 20 GWh of lithium-ion batteries each year—from production scrap, battery packs, and consumer devices—producing more than 60,000 tons of critical materials annually.
95%
Critical materials recovery
We recover more than 95% of critical materials—lithium, nickel, cobalt, and copper—from products already out there.
Largest
U.S. "Mine"
Redwood is the first commercial-scale nickel, lithium, and cobalt source (mined or otherwise) to open in the U.S. in decades.
Engineering resilience
Why we do it
Batteries contain even higher concentrations of nickel, cobalt, lithium, and copper than mined ores. Already imported in our consumer products, they now form a strategic U.S. stockpile of critical materials we're able to recover.

Why we do it
Demand for critical materials is soaring, but the U.S. lacks the raw supply to keep up. Redwood is closing the gap by recovering the critical materials needed to build a resilient domestic supply.
