What happens to your scrap metal after it is sent for recycling?

Once we receive metals, we use specialist operational equipment such as shears and balers to produce high-quality steel and other metals. Metals are cleaned and segregated to meet international specifications, meaning we always meet our consumer’s requirements. Recycled metals are then loaded for shipment in containers. We fully utilise our spaces by using a container tilter which saves time and costs, meaning that ultimately our production levels and turnovers are higher.
