    Weighed honestly

    Every load crosses an SABS-approved weighbridge that is calibrated on a regular basis. The number on your slip is a number you can trust.

    Sorted & graded

    Ferrous is separated from non-ferrous, clean from mixed, grade from grade — because value lives in the detail.

  4. 04 / 05

    Baled & dispatched to spec

    Graded metal is prepared, baled and dispatched to meet each foundry's exact requirements — locally and for export.

  5. 05 / 05

    Reborn as something beautiful

    At our customers' foundries, the metal we supply is melted down and reborn as the castings, components and finished products of tomorrow.
