PolyGO
About PolyGO

Built by a chemist and an automation engineer.

Founded in Singapore in 2019, PolyGO develops chemical-based recovery solutions, the PolyGOResin™ Select Series and process system design for the precious metal recovery industry.

PolyGO exists because precious metal recovery operators kept being sold the same generic chemistry stack — one tuned for nothing in particular and compliant with regulations that already moved on. We started by reformulating gold and silver leaching to be non-cyanide by default, then extended into nickel, PGMs, precipitation and surface preparation.

Around the chemistry, we developed the PolyGOResin™ Select Series — an ion-exchange resin cartridge that holds across the full pH range and selectively binds precious-metal ions out of complex industrial solutions. And around that, we build the process line: design, commissioning, SOPs and the optimisation engagement that keeps it running.

We are not a recycler. We do not collect feedstock, run lines or sell recovered metal. We are a product company — and our customers are the recyclers, refiners and industrial operators who run those lines themselves.

How we work
  • Product company, not a recycler

    We sell chemistry, resins and engineering — your operation runs the line and owns the feedstock.

  • Engineered for compliance

    Non-cyanide chemistries by default. Designed to fit modern effluent and safety regimes.

  • Tunable, not boxed

    Every chemistry is tuned to your feedstock and rig. We start with a complimentary characterisation.

  • Built on real deployments

    Our product roadmap is driven by what runs reliably on customer lines across Singapore, Malaysia and beyond.
