From Aluminium Scrap to Secondary Raw Material: The Recovery Journey

Aluminium can be remelted repeatedly. Here's how scrap returns to manufacturing.

Aluminium is widely used in automotive and electrical components, and its scrap is valued because the metal can be remelted and reused.

Sorting by alloy and form

Extrusions, castings, sheet and borings behave differently in recovery. Keeping them separate helps processors produce consistent secondary alloys.

Remelting

Secondary smelters melt sorted aluminium, adjust its chemistry and cast it into ingots that manufacturers can use again.

The role of the source

Clean, well-segregated aluminium from the factory floor makes every subsequent step more efficient.
