Aluminium
About 8% of the Earth’s crust is composed of aluminium, making it the most abundant metal on the planet. Aluminium’s lightweight property makes it very popular in construction, transportation and machinery.
Some of the specifications we work with:
- Talon
New pure aluminium and wire and cables. - Telic
Mixed aluminium borings and turnings. - Tense
Mixed aluminium castings. - Troma
Aluminium auto or truck wheels. - Zorba
Shredded non-ferrous metals, predominately aluminium. - Tablet
Clean aluminium lithographic sheets. - Taint/Tabor
Clean old alloyed sheets of two or more alloys. - Taldack
Densified aluminium used beverage can (UBC) scrap. - Talk
Aluminium copper radiators. - Tally
All aluminium radiators from automobiles.

Copper
There are more than 400 copper alloys, each with its unique properties. Copper’s strength and conductivity make it useful in various building and electrical applications.
Some of the specifications we work with:
- Honey
Yellow brass scrap. - Lake
Brass small arms and rifle shells, clean fired. - Night
Yellow brass rod turnings. - Nomad
Yellow brass turnings. - Ocean
Mixed unsweated auto radiators. - Barley
No.1 copper wire. - Birch
No.2 copper wire. - Candy
No.1 heavy copper. - Candy Cliff
No.2 heavy copper. - Clove
No.1 copper wire nodules. - Cocoa
Copper wire nodules.

Nickel
Most of the world’s supply of nickel is mined in the Sudbury region of Ontario, Canada. Nickel’s corrosion-resistant properties make it ideal for creating alloys such as stainless steel.
Some of the specifications we work with:
- Sabot
Stainless steel scrap. - Ultra
Stainless steel turnings. - Dandy
New cupro nickel clips and solids. - Daunt
Cupro nickel solids.

Zinc
Approximately one-third of all metallic zinc produced today is used in galvanization, a process of coating iron and steel products against corrosion.
Some of the specifications we work with:
- Saves
Old zinc die-cast scrap.
- Scrabs
New zinc die-cast scrap.
- Scope
New zinc plated die-cast scrap.

Lead
Lead makes up only about 0.0013% of the earth’s crust but is not considered to be a rare element as it’s easily mined and refined. Lead is used in building construction, car batteries, ceramic and glass glazing.
Some of the specifications we work with:
- Racks
Scrap lead scrap.
- Rails
Lead battery plates.
- Rains
Drained lead batteries.
