Carbide Recycling service
Carbide is a crucial raw material in industry, but it is also a limited and valuable natural resource. Walter Tools offers a recycling service that enables customers to return used tools back into production. With this service, the material cycle is closed, and new tools are made from the same raw materials. This solution supports sustainable development and reduces the need to mine carbide from nature.

The Walter recycling service is an all-in-one solution where customers receive everything from a single supplier. Tools are collected and processed through a certified, transparent process that adheres to high quality and ethical standards. This way, customers can be sure that their used drills, mills, and indexable inserts aren't wasted, but are fully returned to production. At the same time, recycling supports responsible sourcing of raw materials and provides peace of mind knowing that materials are handled within the manufacturer's own quality chain.
The service is designed to be as easy as possible. Customers can order a Walter Tools recycling container through Camcut, download a shipping label, and arrange pickup. The recycling bin is delivered free of charge, and once it's full, Camcut arranges a free pickup. The contents are weighed and inspected, after which the customer receives compensation for them.
The recycling service is currently available for solid carbide drills, mills, and indexable inserts, both coated and uncoated. From the customer's perspective, the service works like a "self-driving cycle": once the container is in place, it fills up alongside normal production, and Walter takes care of the rest. This means companies don't need to commit additional resources to organize recycling—the solution seamlessly becomes part of regular operations.
Recycling carbide delivers benefits on many levels. It reduces raw material mining and lowers energy consumption, which in turn leads to decreased CO₂ emissions. Customers have the assurance that their tools won't end up as waste, but will be turned into new products meeting the manufacturer's strict quality standards. This creates a closed loop that combines economic, environmental, and practical benefits.
Camcut is the official Walter Tools distributor in Finland and now offers this recycling service to its customers. Together with Walter Tools, Camcut helps companies close the material loop and implement a practical, responsible solution.
