Recycled Metal
Recycled Metal
Recycled Metal from construction and demolition (C&D) recycling includes steel, aluminum, copper, and other metals recovered from structural components, piping, wiring, roofing, and equipment. Once sorted and cleaned of non-metallic materials, these metals are melted down and reformed into new products without losing their strength or quality—a process that can be repeated indefinitely. Recycled metal is used in everything from new construction materials and automotive parts to appliances and consumer goods.
Common uses include:
- Appliance parts
- Automobiles and aircrafts
- Bridges and roads
By diverting metal from landfills, C&D recycling conserves natural ore resources, reduces energy consumption (often by more than 50% compared to producing virgin metal), and lowers greenhouse gas emissions, making it one of the most valuable and sustainable recovered materials.
