Aluminium scrap

Extrusion, taint tabor, used beverage cans, radiators, sheets, foil, wire, wheels, castings, turnings and profiles.

What we accept

Extrusion, taint tabor, used beverage cans, radiators, sheets, foil, wire, wheels, castings, turnings and profiles. Eleven forms, each graded on its own.

Extrusion and profile are the cleanest streams

Clean extrusion and profile off a fabrication shop grade above mixed or painted sheet. Keeping a fabrication stream separate from general aluminium is what protects its grade.

Castings, wheels and turnings

Cast aluminium, wheels and turnings are taken as their own grades. Turnings in particular are assessed on what they carry with them rather than on weight alone.

Extrusion is the clean end

Clean extrusion free of thermal break, rubber and screws is the highest grade. Painted and coated sheet, cast, and mixed alloy run below it and are weighed as separate streams.

Attachments and alloy type

Steel screws, hinges, rubber gasket and plastic thermal break are stripped out. Cast and wrought aluminium are kept apart because they are remelted into different products.

From the yard to the port

Five stages, handled by us, in the order they happen.

    Grading and preparation

    Material is sorted and graded, then cut, sheared or baled to the size the buyer specifies.

  2. 02

    Weighing

    Every load is weighed and a weight ticket is issued against it, recording gross, tare and net.

    Inspection

    A lot may be inspected at the yard by arrangement. Photographs and weights of a specific lot are provided on request.

  4. 04
