A single drone contains a surprising array of valuable materials. Brushless motors yield copper windings and rare earth magnets (neodymium, dysprosium). Circuit boards contain gold, silver, palladium, and platinum. Airframes contribute aluminum, carbon fiber, and engineering plastics. REFPV's material recovery process in Fairbanks achieves a 95%+ recovery rate.
Before any drone is disassembled in our facility, all data storage is securely wiped. This includes internal memory, SD cards, and firmware-level data. Fairbanks enterprise clients receive detailed data destruction reports meeting federal compliance standards. This is especially critical for government and defense drone operators in Alaska.
