We provide years of processing experience in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. These products are processed through numerous industrial machines resulting in packaged materials ready to ship to smelters and refineries. Our commitment to our clients has resulted in an enormous growth in our company. Our processes have been redesigned for better efficiency. We have purchased several new industrial machines to facilitate and accommodate our end users. We strive to become a complete recycling center and we continue to provide solutions to our contracted clients.

Our facility has adapted several procedures to accommodate materials such as tires, electronic boards, plastics, card board, and other recyclable materials.

Our Copperprocess has been developed to produce 99% copper return from insulated wire. Our exceptional process separates plastic and PVC from the copper and end result is bagged for shipping. Several magnetic conveyers separate metals that can contaminate the process.

Our process is not just limited to insulated copper. Copper stamping, heavy gauge copper, tin plated terminals, brass, are among several other metals that we can efficiently process. Our equipment is regularly maintained and inspected to assure smooth operations and reduce downtime. Our two shifts allow us to maintain a well greased operation and a clean facility. Our flexible shifts and hours has allowed us to maximize efficiency and reduce operating cost.

Bailing has been an intricate part of our operation. This has allowed us to bail a variety of material from hard metals such as stainless steel to cardboard, plastic and aluminum cans. Both bailers in our facility can compact bails at 1200lbs to 3000lbs depending on material. Our bailers enhanced features insure a well compacted bail wrapped with an 11 gauge wire system, which provides a dense package allowing shipping and handling efficiencies.
