Westwin Elements Series B

Currently, no commercial nickel refining capacity exists in the U.S., which means the U.S. relies almost entirely on imports for its own nickel consumption. Therefore, developing refining capacities is critical to reduce import dependency, minimize geopolitical risk, and establish a domestic supply chain. Westwin solves this issue by localizing nickel refining capacity and mitigating Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) violations within the global critical mineral supply chain. The company is dedicated to upholding ESG standards, ensuring ethical sourcing, traceability, and a more equitable profit distribution across all supply chain stakeholders.
