Code: 10982. In our scrap metal recycling business we deal with the collection and selection of copper waste.
Copper scrap, which may come from production waste, building demolitions or other sources, is baled and sent to foundries to make new raw material.
What is Copper Scrap
Copper scrap is a waste or salvage material composed predominantly of copper, a reddish-orange metal that is highly conductive and resistant to corrosion. Copper is used in many industries, including construction, electrical, telecommunications and electronics, so scrap can come from electrical cables, pipes, electrical equipment components or industrial machinery.
Being highly recyclable without losing its properties, copper scrap is very valuable in the recycling market.
Recovered copper is remelted and reused in new applications, helping to reduce the need to extract new material and save energy resources. This makes it a key component for environmental sustainability and the circular economy.
