Metal scrap industry in the United Kingdom encompasses two main groups of metals: ferrous and non-ferrous. Ferrous metal scrap takes leading positions on the market in terms of volumes of trading, whereas non-ferrous metal scrap is considered to be rarer, and, thus, more valuable. Aluminum is one of the most requested metals, when considering metal scrap industry in the UK. Below you may find the list of all the available requests and offers of aluminum scrap.
Prices for non-ferrous metal scrap, aluminum in particular, are determined by the extent of purity, in other words, how well you prepared your scrap. Aluminum scrap is mainly obtained from cans, wires, radiators, aluminum sheets, etc. Presence of other materials, as rubber or steel, suggests lower scrap quality and cuts its price significantly. On the British Scrap Metal Portal you can find a list of different aluminum scrap offers from a wide range of suppliers and from different resources.
