Pure zinc: sheets, gutters, castings and components from the galvanising plant, free from steel contaminants. The highest-grade zinc.

Post-production waste

Post-production waste

Zinc-aluminium (ZnAl) alloys in the form of production waste – new castings, flash and die-castings, clean and free from steel inserts.

Post-depreciation value

Post-depreciation value

Second-hand zinc alloy components: door handles, fittings, cabinet bodies and decorative castings. These may be chrome-plated or painted, but any steel components must be removed.

How can you recognise zinc?

Pure zinc has a matt, grey-blue hue and is relatively soft. It is not magnetic. It is noticeably softer than steel and can easily be scratched with a key or another hard object.

We verify purity and any impurities by means of on-site XRF analysis.

Zinc scrap collection – types

We purchase zinc scrap in any form, shape and purity: sheet metal, plates, pipes, castings, wire, powder and other zinc-containing products. The zinc scrap is sent for remelting and refining, during which impurities are removed and the pure metal is recovered.

What types of zinc do we buy?

  • Zinc sheets – from dismantled zinc roofing and guttering. Note: zinc sheet is not the same as galvanised sheet – the latter is steel coated with a thin layer of zinc and is used for purchase of steel scrap.
  • Zinc granules – from recycled batteries, mainly the common „AA” batteries.
  • Hard zinc – waste from the hot-dip galvanising of steel products, which accumulates at the bottom of the galvanising bath.

Zinc and ZnAl

Zinc-aluminium alloys (ZnAl, Znal) – fittings, door handles, bodies and die-castings – are described in detail on a separate page: purchase of ZnAl.
