Scrap Metal Recycling
At A&A Recycling Services Ltd., we are committed to providing comprehensive waste management solutions that extend beyond wood recycling. As part of our sustainable waste processing services, we offer efficient and responsible disposal of both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Our metal recycling services ensure that valuable materials are recovered, repurposed, and reintegrated into the production cycle, supporting the principles of the circular economy and reducing environmental impact.
Metal waste is a common by-product of various industries, including construction, manufacturing, and demolition. It is broadly categorised into two types:
- Ferrous Metals – These metals contain iron and are typically magnetic. Examples include steel, cast iron, and wrought iron. They are widely used in construction, automotive, and heavy machinery industries.
- Non-Ferrous Metals – These metals do not contain iron and are generally resistant to corrosion. Examples include aluminium, copper, brass, lead, and zinc. They are commonly used in electrical wiring, plumbing, and aerospace applications.
Both ferrous and non-ferrous metals have high recycling value, allowing businesses to recover costs while contributing to sustainability efforts.
