Copper Scrap

It is estimated that in the last one hundred years, two-thirds of the 690 million tonnes of copper produced are still in productive use. Nearly 70 percent of worldwide copper produced is used for electrical/conductivity applications and communications.

With more social demand for carbon neutrality and electric vehicles, demand for copper is expected to increase. Copper is becoming something indispensable in solving environmental issues and in the development of society.

During the past decade, strong growth in emerging economies, coupled with an increased use of copper for innovative and clean energy technologies, has led to significantly higher copper demand. The recovery and recycling of copper helps to satisfy this demand and to build a sustainable future for people and the planet.
