Material Classifications

Secondary metal grades to specification

Every allocation complies with recognised international ISRI classifications, complete with origin assay documentation, moisture allowances, and verified chemical analysis before maritime dispatch.

Non-Ferrous Alloys

Furnace-ready non-ferrous specifications

ISRI Birch & Cliff

Copper nodule and berry scrap

Clean copper wire nodules and heavy scrap segregated to minimum 99 percent purity. Free from burnt wire, brittle strands, and non-metallic attachments to ensure direct melt efficiency.

ISRI Honey & Ocean

Brass solids and castings

Yellow and red brass scrap containing strictly monitored tin, zinc, and lead ratios. Consignments undergo sorting to remove iron sleeves, plated trim, and excessive solder residue.

ISRI Taint-Tabor & Zorba

Aluminium shred and extrusions

Uniform aluminium allocations including 6063 extrusion cut-offs and dense zorba shred. Processed to stringent metallurgical tolerances with nominal magnesium and iron concentrations.

Ferrous Melting Feed

Bulk ferrous melt allocations

Shredded steel ISRI 211

Heavy melting scrap HMS 1&2

Homogeneous magnetically separated fragmentised carbon scrap yielding high bulk density and reliable metallic recovery rates for modern electric arc furnaces.

Wrought iron and steel scrap blended in standard 80:20 ratios, cut to furnace-loading dimensions under 1.5 metres. Consignments are visually vetted for black pipe, ordnance risks, and non-metallic inclusions prior to deep-sea loading.

Foundry plate and structural

Heavy structural steel cuts and clean plate remnants selected specifically for cupola and induction furnaces demanding strict phosphorus and sulphur maximums.

Metallurgical Verification

Assay and inspection protocols

Secondary metals require verifiable analysis before transit. Each parcel follows three systematic checkpoints to confirm chemistry, safety, and physical weight.

Handheld XRF spectrometry

Portal radiation scanning

Moisture and tare deduction

Alloy chemistry is tested on random cross-sections of each batch to confirm elemental thresholds and guard against off-spec tramp elements.

Truckloads and containers pass through calibrated scintillation detectors at origin yards, certifying background radiation levels before terminal entry.

Independent surveyors establish tare calibration, container seal serialisation, and verified moisture deductions according to agreed contract terms.
