The Chiert family has been involved in the recycling of scrap
metal since 1972. The family business evolved in 1991 with the
establishment of Australian Metal Co.
Australian Metal Co. is a recycler and collector of all
Non-Ferrous Metals, and Precious Metal Scrap specializing in the
collection and processing of auto catalytic converters for the
recovery of the Platinum Group Metals contained in them.
Since its inception, AMC has been one of the leading recyclers
of gold and silver from electronics scrap. The diversity of the
company extends to the dismantling and recycling of redundant
electro-mechanical and electronic telecommunication equipment.
AMC is also a large collector and recycler of copper and copper
base alloy scrap as well as aluminium, stainless steel and high
nickel alloys. AMC holds Environmental licenses to ensure safe
handling of all its material. AMC also has facilities for pick up and
removal of steel scrap and offer a total factory clean-up
service.
Since 2000, AMC has embarked on a collection system to service
all wrecking yards wherein we clear out not only the auto
catalytic converters, but purchase all Non-Ferrous Metals: "THE
ONE STOP COLLECTION SYSTEM."
Super Cat Converters was established in 1995 as the collection
arm for scrap catalytic converters for Australian Metal Co. In
October 1996 it began importing aftermarket replacement
converters from the USA. The business has grown to become a
major national wholesaler to the exhaust industry with 6
branches across the country. These branches include Sydney (head
office warehouse and scrap yard), Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth.
Super Cat Converters distribute a wide range of products with
over 3000 part numbers available. These products include Replacement bolt
on and universal aluminized mufflers, catalytic converters,
stainless steel performance mufflers, bolt on performance
systems to suit most domestic and foreign cars, extractors and
accessories. The products are distributed in the following
brands: Super Cat Converters, Super Cat Performance, Super Cat
Motor Sport, Carsound, and Magnaflow Performance Exhaust.
The combined resources of both companies ensure all customers
are given the highest possible service throughout the country.
Both companies employ over 65 people and have over 30 utilities
and trucks on the road.
The business is a true family business with Max Chiert, joined
by three of his sons, Mark, Wayne, and Jared and his daughter
Davina.
