Insights
Product insights to guide your sourcing.
Product Trends
High-purity copper scrap and sorted aluminum scrap are experiencing strong demand growth. Processed, single-source scrap with low contamination is highly favored over mixed metals to support efficient recycling.
Industrial Cluster Analysis
Guangdong (Foshan) and Zhejiang (Taizhou) are major metal recycling hubs. These clusters offer advanced sorting and large-scale processing, matching high-volume industrial recycling orders.
Quality Expectations
Buyers expect strict adherence to ISRI specifications. Non-ferrous scrap must meet minimum purity levels (e.g., Cu >= 99%) and minimal non-metallic impurities to ensure optimal melting yield.
What You Need to Know
Request independent third-party testing (like SGS or CCIC) for composition, moisture, and radioactivity. Obtain high-definition photos or loading videos to verify sorting consistency.
The minimum order quantity is typically one container (20-25 tons). Processing and customs clearance take 15-30 days; transit time depends entirely on shipping routes and destination.
Budget for export/import customs duties, terminal handling fees, third-party inspection charges (CCIC/SGS), container demurrage, and potential environmental compliance costs.
