ALUMINIUM

Industrial aluminium recycling.

Profiles, sheet offcuts, swarf and castings may belong to different grades and alloys. Correct separation improves inspection and destination.

THE FULL METALS APPROACH

Recovering aluminium begins with recognising its grade.

Aluminium from extrusion, stamping, machining or dismantling is not a uniform flow. Alloy, form, coatings, inserts, oils and associated materials affect classification and the preparation required before recovery.

Full Metals assesses industrial aluminium scrap and organises the route from collection to destination. Collection, weighing, inspection, separation and preparation are defined around the actual material and the continuity of production.

Profiles and sections

Thermal breaks, seals, screws and other inserts are considered during classification.

Sheet and offcuts

Clean, homogeneous fractions can be kept separate to preserve their characteristics.

Swarf

Chips, moisture and machining fluids require specific containment and inspection.

BATCH QUALITY

Separate alloys, forms and contaminants.

Mixed collection can combine different alloys, coated material, ferrous components and machining residue. Organising separate streams at source makes inspection clearer and reduces later sorting.

Castings and components requiring verification

ORGANISATION

Containers and collections tailored to production.

Volume, bulk density and frequency affect the choice of container and vehicle. The service can be arranged through scheduled or on-demand collections, avoiding accumulation that makes grades difficult to distinguish.

Once inspected and prepared, the material is consolidated into batches for channels suited to the alloy and form.

HOW WE WORK

A clear process, from the initial assessment to the final destination.

Mapping

We identify the different material types produced.

Collection

We define separate containers where required.

Verification

We check alloy, inserts and contamination.

Preparation

We prepare batches for the selected destination.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Useful information before you contact us.

Which aluminium scrap do you assess?

Profiles, sheet, pieces, swarf, chips, castings and other industrial fractions can be assessed after their alloy, form and condition have been verified.

Should coated and clean aluminium be separated?

Where possible, yes. Coatings, inserts and foreign materials change batch characteristics and may require different destinations.

How is a recurring flow organised?

We consider quantity, frequency, material density and available space to define containers, loading methods and a collection schedule.
