Introduction For multinational companies with high volumes of industrial scrap, waste is not a cost center—it is a commodity waiting to be monetized. Mexico’s growing manufacturing sector, especially in the automotive and aerospace industries, generates vast amounts of lightweight metal waste (aluminum, thin gauge steel). Efficiently recycling this waste is a powerful strategy for both sustainability reporting and operational profit.
The Challenge of Lightweight Metals Recycling metals, particularly lightweight materials, presents a unique logistical challenge due to its low density and high volume. This results in costly storage and inefficient transport. Companies need specialized solutions:
- Volume Reduction: High-performance triturators and industrial presses are necessary to dramatically reduce the volume of metal scrap.
- Purity and Separation: The process requires technology that ensures high material purity, which is critical for maximizing the selling price of the recycled commodity.
