Which cables do we buy?

cable clusters

Cables with plugs

Cables mainly come from electronic equipment or industrial installations. They often have steel armour, plugs and sockets. They must be free of free dirt and scrap. Copper content ~26%.

cable purchase

Cables with supporting cable

Telecommunications or coaxial cables suspended from poles with steel supporting cable. Gel-coated cables may be used. Cables should be cleared of free non-metallic debris and scrap.

cable purchase

Reinforced cables

Aluminium or copper cables reinforced with steel tape. Predominantly used in power generation or telecommunications. These cables are laid directly in the ground and the steel armour protects them from damage.

lead cables

Lead cables

Lead cables used mainly in telecommunications. They are characterised by a sheath made of lead. The conductors in the cable are separated from each other by paper insulation.
or polyethylene.

aluminium cables for sale

Aluminium cables

Aluminium cables are mainly used in the power industry. There are some cables containing copper conductors in their structure in addition to aluminium conductors.
We buy aluminium cables thick and thin.

fibre optic cables

Fibre optic cables

Fibre optic cables do not contain any metals.
They are made of glass fibres and various admixtures of plastic. Fibre optic cables
are disposed of for a fee.

cables with a high copper content

Cables with high copper content

Power or telecommunications cables with a copper content above 50%. Cables must be free of dirt, dry without gel, tar or steel.

hazardous cables

Hazardous cables - 170410*

This is a type of copper or aluminium cable containing petroleum-based substances hazardous to the environment, such as tar, oils and grease.

cable mix purchase

Mixed (installation) cables

Installation cables from demolition and refurbishment. Cables should be free of metallic and non-metallic impurities. Copper content ~38%.

Buying insulated cables - price

Copper cable buying is based on a formula relating to the price of copper, which you can check on the LME website, while aluminium cable buying is based on a number of other dependencies and the price is determined each time it is delivered.

Our experts have many years of experience in determining the scrap copper and aluminium content of cable, which ensures your professional service.

The copper and aluminium cables that are bought in are handed over from the collection point to our partner, who processes them on the appropriate machines in a professional manner and recovers the secondary raw materials in the form of pure copper and aluminium.

Purchased fibre optic cables are sent for disposal to recycling facilities specialised for this purpose.

Individual pricing:

For truck quantities (min 21 tonnes), we offer an individual quote for the value of the cables based on the London Stock Exchange and the Cu/Al content of the cable.

When we buy insulated cables, we assess their price based on the amount of copper or aluminium they contain. When accepting cables, our team of experts will assess the non-ferrous metal content of the cables.
We determine the price of the cables based on the specified content. The price of the cables depends on what material is in them and how complex the processing is.

Copper cables - interesting facts

An ordinary copper cable can transmit 63 telephone calls simultaneously on a single pair of wires. Constructed in 1935, coaxial cable reaches a capacity of several thousand calls.
In contrast, a single glass fibre of optical fibre with a diameter of 0.001 mm allows 30-40,000 conversations to be transmitted simultaneously.
One of the thickest cables in the world is the NordLink cable.
It is a submarine cable connecting Germany and Norway. Its cross-sectional area is 1400 mm², making it one of the
of the thickest power cables in the world.
The cable has the capacity to transmit approximately 1.4 gigawatts (GW) of electricity.
