Simple systems that keep scrap organized, safe and commercially valuable on your shop floor.
Most plants treat scrap as an afterthought until the scrap yard overflows. A few simple habits can make scrap handling safer, cleaner and more valuable.
Map your scrap streams
List every point where scrap is generated, what material it is, and roughly how much is produced each week. This single document makes every later decision easier.
Designate and label bins
- Separate bins for each major metal
- Clear labels in English and Tamil
- Covered storage for borings to limit moisture
- Separate area for rejected components
Agree a pickup rhythm
Recurring pickups prevent accumulation, reduce floor space pressure and give both sides predictable volumes to plan around.
Keep records
Maintain weighment slips, invoices and gate passes for every movement. Good records support audits and help you track the value of your scrap over time.
