Metal Recycling: Put Unwanted Scrap Metal to Use
Recycling Saves Money and the Environment
Metal Recycling can help your business save money while protecting the environment and adopting to environmental policies. One way to protect the planet's resources while building profits is through the reprocessing of metal materials into new products by recycling scrap metal.
Metal recycling prevents wasting potentially useful materials, reduces the consumption of raw materials and energy usage, and reduces pollution created in the manufacturing process.
How Can Metal Recycling Provide Value Back To Your Business?
The value of metals in briquette form is much higher than the price of un-compacted scrap metal. Many of our customers report yields in the 93% to 95% range by using briquettes, which increases the value of the metal and recovers valuable and reusable cutting fluids. Since some recycled metals, like aluminum, require only five percent of the energy required to manufacture from raw materials, metal recycling is a great way to conserve material and energy.
Before recycling metals, they need to be compacted into a briquette. Briquetting helps make metal recycling even more productive by maximizing the metal unit yielded from turnings and chips and by reducing the energy and pollution caused by burning off coolants that can also be re-used. The price for scrap metals is much higher in briquette form, which gives you a bigger return on investment.
Metal Recycling Tips
To make your scrap metal into briquettes, you will need to collect each different type of metal in receptacles - such as boxes or bins - so that it can be grouped together. You can also donate your scrap metal to local artists so that it can be turned into creative works of environmentally-friendly art.
The types of scrap metals - both precious and alloy - that are recyclable include aluminum, brass, cast iron, copper, magnesium, steel, swarf, titanium, and zinc. In each of these applications, metal recycling represents an important part of your environmental policy and your bottom line.
