Sponge Accreditation Rules

Sponge Accreditation Lists

Sponge Accreditation

Due to requests from Good Delivery (GD) refiners the LPPM has introduced Platinum, Palladium and Rhodium Sponge Accreditation lists to run alongside the current GD bar lists. All refiners currently on the GD bar lists will be entitled to be added to the Sponge Accreditation lists if they so wish.

Refiners not currently on the GD bar lists can apply for sponge accreditation only. The process for sponge accreditation is similar to the full GD bar application process.

Good Delivery Lists

Good Delivery

To facilitate trading among members, a list of acceptable Refiners is maintained by the London Platinum and Palladium Market (LPPM). This is known as The London/Zurich Good Delivery List.

This list of Good Delivery refiners of platinum and palladium plates and ingots has been developed and is maintained by the LPPM in order to facilitate the international distribution and acceptability of standard plates and ingots produced by those refiners.
