Carbon Zero Technologies is a China-based renewable resources recycling company that buys and resells waste materials, primarily scrap ferrous metals and household waste. The company operates through a nationwide network of third-party recycling stations and sorting centers. Carbon Zero Technologies sources materials from individual consumers and enterprise suppliers and sells them to industrial buyers such as steel mills and dismantling enterprises. The core business model involves capturing the price spread between the purchase and resale of recyclable goods. Carbon Zero Technologies uses an Online-to-Offline technology platform consisting of three mobile applications that digitize the collection, bidding, and inventory management processes. This digital layer provides traceability and data on recycling volumes and logistics throughout the supply chain. While almost all revenue comes from physical product sales, the company also generates higher-margin service fees from its digital platform. Carbon Zero Technologies aims to expand its physical footprint, move downstream into dismantling and processing to capture higher margins, and diversify into new recycling categories like lithium-ion batteries. The company also plans to expand internationally and participate in carbon credit trading. Commodity price fluctuations and government subsidies heavily influence profitability.
