Downplaying the environmental impact of sending scrap metal to landfills is a mistake manufacturers should avoid at all costs. The immediate effect is an increase in the cost of doing business since manufacturers must rely on newly mined metals. Unfortunately, it increases the number of mining sites and slows down land reclamation efforts.

Recycling scrap metal is vital to mitigating the effects of environmental degradation, which is where scrappers prove indispensable. Recycling non-ferrous metals plays a significant role in reducing carbon footprint in the environment. It is cheaper to recycle non-ferrous metals, such as aluminium, silver, copper and nickel, since they can undergo unlimited recycling cycles and retain their intrinsic properties.
