Ferrous Metals Scrap Process
Procurement and Collection
We procure ferrous scrap metals from both local and overseas sources.
We purchase ferrous scrap metals from scrap dealers, demolition companies and individual collectors of scrap metals who deliver the scrap metals directly to our production facilities, construction companies, manufacturing companies and engineering companies who generate metal scraps. In addition to these sources, we procure ferrous scrap metals through tenders from multinational companies, shipyards and government bodies such as the Housing Development Board.
Before the scrap metals are purchased, we weigh and inspect the grade of the scrap metals.
Sorting and Segregation
After the scrap metals are unloaded at our production facilities, we sort and segregate the purchased scrap metals according to their type and grade before further processing.
Shearing or Cutting
As part of our ferrous metals recycling process, we cut the ferrous scrap metals by using hand-torches, alligator shears or stationary guillotine shears. For bulky, dirty and oversized ferrous scrap metals, we use shearing machines to cut these scrap metals to obtain denser and cleaner scrap metals.
Quality Control, Packing and Storage
We send the sorted and segregated recycled scrap metals to our yards for storage. Upon receiving orders from our customers, we load the metals onto trucks or pack them in containers and weigh them before delivery. We weigh the recycled ferrous scrap metals on weighbridges to help ensure that the correct quantity is being sold to our customers.
All our weighbridges are equipped with weighing indicators for transparency in the weighing process. Our weighbridges are calibrated by Spring Singapore (Weight and Measure) once every two years.
