We accelerate local beneficiation of platinum group and precious metals by helping makers move from training or informal trade into formal, profitable businesses. Applications for the next pre-incubation intake are open to artisans, jewellery designers and SMMEs working with platinum group or precious metals.

TPI helps artisans and SMMEs turn platinum into products. High-security storage and handling that meet Precious Metals Act requirements.

Security gate entry rules apply at the ORBIT TVET College campus in Rustenburg.
