What We Offer
We offer flexible solutions for collection and processing of scrap metals, be that industrial or domestic.
At our established scrap metal recycling and processing facilities across the East of Scotland - including Aberdeen, Montrose, Shetland and Evanton (near Inverness) - scrap metal is sorted and sheared ready to be recycled into new steel products. Reuse and recycling are viable alternatives to scrapping and are options that have a positive effect on our, and our customer’s environmental credentials.
Our Aim
Our aim is zero to landfill and our goal is to provide a problem-free solution for the removal, storage and the ultimate recycling or reuse of waste scrap metals.
Direct to Steel Mills
We provide an end-to-end closed loop service by shipping processed waste scrap metal from domestic, industrial and decommissioning projects directly to steel mill smelters, all in accordance with client and regulatory requirements.
