Aluminum
The earth’s most abundant metal, but more expensive than iron due to the electrical energy needed to extract it. Found in everything from kitchen supplies and packaging, to powerlines, machinery, electronics and even spacecraft.

Brass
An ancient medium of craft and commerce, brass is much more expensive to convert than copper. Found commonly in locks, hinges, bearings, gears, engines, valves, electrical appliances and sockets.

Copper
A must-have for electrical and home heating systems, appliance, and many other electric devices. The price and demand for copper ore is rising each and every year, which means that the more that can be recycled, the less needs to be mined from the earth’s natural supply.

Iron
A key ingredient for metals of all types, crucial for manufacturing and industry. It is paired with dozens of other metals and elements to create the essential building blocks of our society. Iron is used to create steel and is therefore has endless demand.

Steel
The most prevalent and important component of industry and manufacturing. Everything we use on a daily basis is fashioned from steel, from the electronics and appliances we use and the bolts and nuts we rely on to hold our furniture together, to the beams that support our skyscrapers, bridges, airplanes, vehicles and more.
Steel can be recycled infinitely, so we take great pride in reutilising the scrap metal we salvage to benefit the advancement of our society and help the planet.

Stainless Steel
Used to create fine tools of all kinds, from the doctors surgery to the kitchen table. It’s extreme durability makes it an economical option for myriad applications.
