Not limited to ferrous consumption, UCG Recycling is highly geared in the trading & processing of Non Ferrous metals.Non-ferrous metals are metals that have no or a very low content of iron. UCG deals in base metals (e.g. copper, lead, zinc, aluminium, etc.) & their respective alloys (e.g. brass, bronze, etc.)

Non-ferrous scrap is mostly industrially generated or purchased from local dealers. The metals are sorted carefully, cleaned & prepared for scrap beneficiation according to customer specification.

We operate 3 main processes for cleaning, sizing & preparing non-ferrous materials: bailing, rasping, & cropping

Our non-ferrous Baling presses produce high-density 300 x 300mm bales for foundry & export applications. The bales are available in copper, aluminium & various brasses.

Rasping is a process whereby dirty copper is cleaned & processed into smaller pieces. The final product is accepted worldwide & satisfies the most stringent quality specifications.

Cropping produces reduced sizes specifically for specialist &/or niche foundry consumption.

UCG Recycling is also a buyer & processor of electrical cable.

Non-Ferrous pricing is based on the London Metal Exchange (LME) and fluctuates accordingly.
