Community Impact

We know the importance of engaging with our local communities in a meaningful way. Through community cleanups and charity donations, we strive to make an impact.

Community Service

While Garfield Refining serves clients across North America and beyond, Philadelphia has been our home for over a century. Giving back locally and staying active in our close-knit Philly community, participating in service activities such as seasonal tree-planting and park cleanups, is core to our identity and supports our core value of sustainability.

Charitable Contributions

We work with partners big and small to provide responsible precious metal recycling solutions. Alongside our partners, Garfield regularly donates to various nonprofits including the Arizona Foundation For Children, Shriners Hospitals for Children, and the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, just to name a few!

Pacemaker Recycling Program

Garfield’s pacemaker recycling program allows participating crematory partners to donate their pacemakers to Project My Heart Your Heart, an initiative orchestrated by the University of Michigan to provide pacemaker access to people in need around the globe.

Doing our Due Diligence

We actively ensure that the precious metals we refine come from legal, ethical sources. We are committed to cultivating a culture of honesty and integrity, upholding high standards for our business.
Golden quotation marks
“After trying others, we’ve found a home working with Garfield Refining. Garfield has made good on their promise to recover the most value from our material while ethically recycling post-cremation metals.  Over the past few years, Garfield has become a trusted partnership, working with us to understand our material and improve our collection of dental metals.”
