Copper Scrap

Copper scrap refers to waste or used copper materials that are collected, recycled, and repurposed for reuse in various industries. It consists of copper-containing products that have reached the end of their useful life, such as wires, pipes, electrical components, and old machinery, which are then processed to recover copper for manufacturing new products.

Quality:
Copper scrap can be classified into different grades depending on its purity and condition. Clean copper scrap is the highest quality and is free from contaminants, while mixed copper scrap may contain other metals or materials like aluminum, steel, or plastic. The quality of copper scrap affects its value and how it is processed.

Components:
Copper scrap typically comes from a variety of sources, including:

• • Electrical wiring and cables (from construction, electronics, and appliances)
  • Plumbing pipes and fittings
  • Old electrical equipment (motors, transformers, circuit boards) etc.
