Advantages of Recycling

Metal Recycling Saves Energy

Recycling scrap metal reduces greenhouse gas emissions and uses less energy than making metal from virgin ore.
The amount of energy saved using various recycled metals compared to virgin ore is up to:

  • 92 % for aluminium
  • 90 % for copper
  • 56 % for steel
