Deputy Minister of Environment Protection and Agriculture, Nino Thandilashvili, during her engagement with "Business Partner", disclosed that Georgia had exported a remarkable 7 tons of catalytic converters last year.
Primarily destined for European markets, these catalytic converters, which contain precious metals, are being extracted from vehicles in large quantities for export purposes, Thandilashvili pointed out. She explained, "The catalytic converters are valuable because they contain precious metals and can be repurposed for various applications."
