Cloud 9 International Trading is a specialized sourcing and supply chain company focused on critical
mineral feedstock, rare earth-bearing materials, NdFeB magnet feedstock, and lithium-ion battery feedstock
across India. With over three decades of family experience in the recycling, resource recovery, and e-waste
sector, we have built a strong reputation for sourcing, aggregation, material segregation, and reliable
feedstock supply to the recycling and resource recovery industry.
Our core strength lies in our extensive PAN-India sourcing network, developed through long-standing
relationships with aggregators, dismantlers, e-waste processors, industrial scrap handlers,
asset recovery companies, battery collectors, recyclers, and material suppliers across multiple
industries. This network enables us to access and aggregate valuable critical mineral-bearing
materials from diverse sources and industrial sectors throughout the country.
We actively source NdFeB magnet feedstock from a wide range of applications, including hard disk drives (HDDs),
EV traction motors, MRI systems, robotics equipment, automation systems, industrial motors, servo motors,
precision engineering equipment, manufacturing machinery, industrial appliances, electronic assemblies, and
other rare earth-bearing products. Through our established sourcing ecosystem, these materials are identified,
recovered, dismantled, segregated, and directed into the recycling value chain for rare earth recovery and
reuse.
In addition to rare earth-bearing materials, we are actively involved in sourcing lithium-ion battery feedstock
from electric vehicles, energy storage systems, telecom infrastructure, consumer electronics, battery
manufacturing scrap, production rejects, end-of-life batteries, industrial battery systems, and other
battery-related waste streams. Our sourcing capabilities allow us to support consistent and scalable
feedstock requirements across various battery recycling and material recovery operations.
Our sourcing footprint extends across multiple states, cities, industrial clusters, manufacturing zones, recycling hubs,
and commercial centers throughout India. We work closely with collection partners and field networks to ensure
continuous access to material streams while maintaining traceability, transparency, and supply consistency.
This nationwide reach enables us to aggregate material volumes efficiently and support both immediate and
long-term feedstock requirements.
At Cloud 9 International Trading, we understand that successful recycling begins with reliable sourcing. Feedstock
quality, proper segregation, material characterization, and supply continuity are critical factors for efficient
recovery of rare earth elements and battery materials. Our team focuses on building structured supply chains that
help bridge the gap between material generation and resource recovery.
As demand for critical minerals, rare earth elements, and battery materials continues to grow, supply chain reliability
has become increasingly important. We are committed to strengthening India’s circular economy by developing
sustainable sourcing networks that recover valuable materials from end-of-life products and return them to
the manufacturing ecosystem.
Urban Mining refers to recovering valuable metals and minerals from discarded products, industrial waste and electronic scrap instead of extracting them from traditional mines.
Research indicates that NdFeB magnets from e-waste streams can contain high concentrations of recoverable rare earth elements, making them highly attractive secondary resources.
India is witnessing rapid growth in rare earth recycling infrastructure.
Recent developments include specialized facilities for processing rare earth magnet scrap, recovering rare earth chlorides and integrating magnet recycling with battery recycling operations. Companies and projects are investing in collection, dismantling, processing and refining capacities to build domestic circular supply chains.
These initiatives reflect India’s transition toward a circular critical-minerals economy.
We aggregate end-of-life electronics and magnetic materials from industrial and consumer sources worldwide.
Every batch undergoes rigorous quality testing and grading to determine optimal recovery paths.
Materials are securely transported to certified recycling facilities and smelters for element extraction.
Recovered rare earth elements are reintroduced into the global supply chain for sustainable manufacturing.
Through our Pan India network, valuable magnet scrap is diverted from landfills and reintroduced into the manufacturing value chain.
NdFeB (Neodymium Iron Boron) Magnets are the world’s strongest permanent magnets.
These magnets contain critical rare earth elements such as Neodymium, Praseodymium, Dysprosium, and Terbium. Urban mining focuses on recovering these vital resources from discarded technology.
