What Happens to it:
Steel is sent to one of our trusted suppliers where the steel is put through a shredder to obtain the right size, contaminants are removed and the finished material is then transported to processing plants worldwide where this material is re-melted and are turned into new steel products.
Why Recycle
Metals can be recycled indefinitely without losing any of their properties. Recycling one tone of steel saves 1.5 tonnes of iron ore, 0.5 tonnes of coal, 40% water usage and 80% of the CO2 emissions produced when making steel from iron ore.

Why Recycle
Metals can be recycled indefinitely without losing any of their properties. Millions of tonnes of non-ferrous scrap metal are recovered by processors and consumed by secondary smelter, refiners, ingot makers, fabricators, foundries, and other industries. Although there is less non-ferrous scrap than ferrous scrap, they are often more expensive as a result of the scarcity of the raw materials and/or the amount of energy involved in the refining of the material from the raw state.
