Recycling ferrous and non-ferrous scrap is an important part of green initiatives because it reduces the amount of waste that enters landfill and lowers the demand for virgin materials. Metal recycling also has economic advantages, and businesses can enjoy financial benefits from recycling commercial scrap, such as scrap copper or scrap lead. Below, we look at the main advantages of sustainable metal disposal.

GET IN TOUCHRecycling and reusing metal reduces the need for new materials. In turn, this minimises the need for environmentally damaging mining activities and the depletion of natural resources. Furthermore, metal recycling produces less harmful emissions than extracting and processing new metal materials and products.
All types of non-ferrous scrap can be turned into new metal of equivalent quality, so there is no risk to manufacturing or product standards when using recycled materials.
Scrap copper, aluminium and other metals can be recycled repeatedly, so scrap metal merchants in Bristol and beyond play a key role in creating a circular economy, which reduces environmental strain.
Iron, lead, aluminium and copper recycling, and the recycling of other non-ferrous scrap, has significant advantages for the economy. Scrap metal recycling and exportation are important parts of the UK economy – we recycle around 10 million tonnes of metal every year and are one largest metal scrap exporting countries in the world.
However, there are also more local economic benefits to recycling commercial scrap. Choosing a local scrap metal merchant for metal collection and recycling supports a business and persons in the community, helping boost the local economy. In addition, companies in Bristol and the surrounding areas can increase profits by selling waste metal for recycling.
