Our Environmental Responsibility
Contact UsWhy Recycle Metal?
The metal recycling industry is on the right track; nearly a third of all aluminum and almost half of all copper and steel production is based on recycled materials! However, we have a responsibility to our environment to help grow these numbers even higher.
Putting more focus on using recycled metals is important for a number of reasons:
Preserving Our Natural Resources
It probably will come as no surprise to you that our world is finite. There is only so much of this planet that we can mine and process to make sure we’re getting the amount of metal we need to sustain ourselves.
However, all kinds of scrap metal can be melted, reformed, and reused without depreciating its structural integrity. Doing this reduces the need for new metal and keeps ore from being needlessly mined.
Protecting Our Environment
On top of keeping our natural resources in the ground for longer, recycling also requires far less energy than mining and producing new metal from scratch. Depending on the metal, we can see up to 95% less energy being used to recycle than to produce new metals!
Keeping Canadians Employed
The Canadian scrap metal industry directly employs nearly 40,000 Canadians and is connected to nearly 120,000 other various Canadian jobs across the country!
Metal Recycling Done Right
When we recycle metal, we’re doing more than finding the best price for our customers (though we like doing that too). We’re taking the metal you bring us and finding the most ethical, responsible, and environmentally friendly way to recycle it.
Let us take care of your scrap metal for you – call us today!
