The Growing Importance of Copper Recycling

Copper is one of the most valuable and widely used non-ferrous metals on the planet. Found in everything from plumbing systems to electronic devices, it's essential for modern infrastructure and green technology. However, the global supply of copper is shrinking, and mining new copper has significant environmental consequences—such as habitat destruction, water contamination, and high energy consumption.

That’s why copper recycling has become so critical. By recycling copper, we significantly reduce the need for mining and cut back on greenhouse gas emissions. According to the EPA’s guide on recycling , recycling just one ton of copper saves up to 85% of the energy required to produce it from virgin ore. That’s not just beneficial for the environment—it’s smart economics.
