Sound familiar?

The metal waste problems faced by the manufacturing industry.

Production metal is predictable, yet many businesses face a range of challenges when dealing with their metal waste. Here’s how we deal with these issues.

Bins overflowing between collections.

We set the frequency from your actual output, and adjust it when production ramps up or down.

Mixed metal waste on site.

We advise on simple segregation at source, so materials can be separated ready for collection and recycling.

Chasing paperwork before an audit.

Documentation arrives automatically after every collection; nothing to request, nothing missing.

Collections that disrupt the line.

We book around your shift pattern and loading bay, including early starts and shutdown weeks.

What we collect

Production metal waste we commonly collect for recycling:

Clean and segregated waste creates high quality recyclables and opportunities for rebates.

Offcuts & sheet

Trim, skeletons and remnants from cutting, pressing and fabrication.

Swarf & turnings

Machining chips from CNC and lathe work, dry or with coolant.

Rejected parts

Out-of-spec batches, prototypes and QC rejects, handled securely.

Obsolete stock

End-of-line components, old tooling and redundant machinery.

Pick a service

Collections that run around your production, not the other way round.

Questions

What manufacturers ask us.

Yes. Most manufacturers are on weekly, fortnightly or monthly collections, set from their actual output and adjusted as it changes.

It isn’t required, but segregated metals are worth more. We’ll suggest the simplest split for your site.

Yes. Out-of-spec and proprietary parts can be processed so they can’t be resold, and documented as such.

Waste transfer notes and a recycling certificate for every collection, showing tonnage and destination.
