Over a Century of Scrap Metal & Recycling Experience
By processing and reusing metals such as copper, steel, and aluminium, recycling helps cut down the demand for raw materials and lowers the environmental impact of metal production. Thanks to advances in recycling technology, even complex and mixed metal wastes can now be efficiently reclaimed, further extending the life cycle of valuable materials.
Reducing Waste at the Source in the Metal Industry
Another critical approach in environmental waste solutions is waste reduction at the source, particularly within the metal industry. This strategy involves implementing smarter design practices and production processes that generate less waste. Companies are increasingly focusing on producing more durable, repairable, and recyclable products. Such practices not only reduce waste but also resonate well with environmentally conscious consumers, enhancing a company’s sustainability credentials.
Converting Scrap Metal Waste into Renewable Energy
Waste-to-energy technologies offer a forward-thinking solution by turning non-recyclable metal waste into energy, such as electricity or heat. These technologies reduce the volume of waste requiring disposal while providing a renewable energy source. While the environmental implications of these processes must be carefully managed, they represent a promising advancement in the pursuit of sustainable metal waste management.

The Process of
Scrap Metal Recycling
Collection
Collection of scrap metal from various sources such as households, businesses and automotive service centres. Specialised collection points or drop-off locations may be established to facilitate this process.
Sorting
Scrap metal is sorted based on type to ensure proper handling and recycling. Batteries and e-waste is dismantled to extract valuable components such as metals, electrolytes and plastics.
Processing
Crushing and smelting is applied depending on the type of metal. This is to help ensure all components are properly separated for optimum recycling capacity and maximising environmental waste solutions.
Refinement and reuse
Refining processes purify recovered metals to a quality suitable for reuse, either as new material or other products. Recovered plastics and electrolytes may be repurposed or processed for further use in various industries.
