The Meath-based company will be relocating to Paladin’s new 52,000 sq ft processing facility in Dublin.
Florida-headquartered mineral recycling firm Paladin Envirotech has acquired Co Meath’s ICT, a 2003-founded IT asset disposal (IATD) services provider. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.
This is the second European company Paladin has acquired since forming in 2025, bringing the company’s total spent in acquisitions globally to €60m.
ICT’s acquisition is expected to support Paladin scale secure critical mineral recovery in Europe. The Meath company has processed more than 2,000 tonnes of conclude-of-life electronics and has securely shredded more than 500,000 data-bearing devices in the past year alone.
It provides mobile, on-site data destruction with its shredding vehicles equipped with industrial-grade systems, alongside a full suite of services including IT asset remarketing, certified destruction, electronics recycling and data centre decommissioning.
Alongside the acquisition, Paladin is also investing in a new 52,000 sq ft processing facility in Dublin to support customers across Europe. ICT will transition into the Paladin brand and relocate its operations to its new parent company’s processing facility.
Current critical mineral recycling capacity is far below what the EU wants, Paladin has declared. It maintained that increasing domestic recycling and recovery capacity is the only short-term solution at hand.
“ICT is a strong legacy organisation in the ITAD space, built on doing the work in-hoapply, maintaining chain-of-custody control, and meeting the highest standards for secure data destruction,” declared Brian Diesselhorst, the CEO of Paladin.
“This acquisition strengthens our ability to support customers in Dublin – widely considered the EU’s ‘data centre capital’ – and across Ireland, with consistent execution and certified outcomes, while expanding our on-site shredding and secure handling capabilities in-region.”
Eva Warren, the CEO of ICT added: “ICT has always been focapplyd on trust, control, and doing ITAD the right way.
“Toobtainher, we’re building a model where organisations don’t have to choose between security, compliance, and sustainability – we can deliver all three, at scale, across Ireland, the UK and Europe.”
